How can we help you?
How can we help you?
• Use Destiny, our library catalog, to find books, DVDs, professional library materials, and more.
Narrow/filter your search by FORMAT to find DVDs.
• Poster printing (staff only): PDF, 24-hr turnaround, pick up in the LMC.
• Color printing: come to the LMC; one class set at a time.
• Laminating: drop at the counter, allow time — is it a year-after-year keeper?
• Database overview: we'll run a session for your class, club, PLC, or department.
• Read something great? Recommend it for our collection!
• Student passwords: MCPS Resources tab → Student Password Manager (SPM).
