Media Center / Library

Students are encouraged to use the library for study, research, and leisure reading. The library/media specialist and aides are available to assist all students in the use of the computers and online catalog. Proper use of the computers is governed by the Acceptable Use Policy as established by the Board of Education. 

The Saddle Brook High School Library is a member of the Bergen Electronic Library For Schools, otherwise known as BELS. Students need a personal card from the Saddle Brook Public Library to borrow books and magazines from our school library. Borrowing library cards is not allowed. 

Print materials are accessed via our online catalog. Interlibrary loans can be arranged for students needing resources from other libraries. In addition to the online catalog, students can also access the Internet, as well as a variety of subject and magazine databases. 

Barring special events or testing, the library is regularly open from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m and is open to students during their lunch/study hall periods. Borrowing privileges are temporarily suspended for those students with unpaid fines or overdue materials. Students who ignore repeated library notices are referred for administrative action. 

The general loan period is for three weeks; reference books and magazines are loaned overnight. Renewals are available for all items. Fines are charged for overdue items. 

Please see our Media Specialist for more information about programs and services.
