Library Print Books
Yes! You can still use print books! You just have to go about it a different way. You will need to search the online catalog and place a hold on the book you would like to use. Once the hold is placed Mrs. Jenner will deliver the books to you in English class. If you are fully remote you will need to pick the books up from the main office when they are ready. Please watch this video to learn how to place a hold using the online catalog.
