November is a time to reflect on all of the things we are thankful for in our lives, and we are thankful for YOU! Our AEW Library community continues to grow and we are excited to see how we will learn and grow together this school year. Of course, we are also thankful for BOOKS! So far this year we have added a number of new graphic novels and mystery/spooky books to our collection, as well as books that you requested through our Book Suggestion Box.
November is also Native American Heritage Month; this is a time to celebrate the traditions, languages, and stories of Native American and Alaska Native communities and ensure their rich histories and contributions continue to thrive with each passing generation. Come check out our display of books written by and about Native Americans.

The Media Center is all about giving students access to information and ideas. We strive to be a safe and welcoming space for all students. Whether looking for a great book, researching for a project, or just wanting a quiet space to read, we invite all of our AEW kids to join us in the library!
We are also open for students at lunchtime to eat and socialize. We have chess, board games, Lego, as well as our Makerspace for students to engage and play with friends.

What you need to know if you want to check out books from the library:
The loan period for a library book is 21 school days. If the book is not returned or renewed by the due date, the book will be considered overdue. Students with charges or overdue materials may not check out additional books until their record is cleared. All materials checked out under a student's name are his or her responsibility.
The current A.E. Wright ID Card is required to check out materials and take WARP tests.
Students may check out three books at a time for a period of three weeks.
Books may be renewed for an additional three weeks, if other students are not waiting for that book.
Students may request that a hold be placed to reserve a title for check-out. Visit the circulation desk and place your request.
Students with overdue materials may not checkout new books, or take WARP Quizzes, until overdue items are returned.
Students are expected to be courteous and respectful at all times.
Backpacks should be left in the cubbies at the front door or hung on hooks outside.
No cellphones allowed in the Media Center.
Laptops may be used for homework only.
Please pick up after yourself and push in your chair before you leave.
