Hello and welcome to your high school library! I am Mrs. Sweigert and I am looking forward to working with you throughout the year.
I have some fun activitiesin order for you to take a "brain break." There are puzzles, Rubik's cubes, trivia, tech tips, book excerpts read aloud and more. Please check the "Contests & Fun Stuff" page regularly.
Brain breaks are great, but say you have to find some information on a specific topic and your teacher said you have to use a database and you don't even know what that is. I can help you. I can walk you through the databases, show you how to find and evaluate useful online sources and how to cite your sources.
Do you finally have some down time and want to read a great book but don't know what you want to read? I can help you with that too! Stop in and ask me or send me an email. (This is one of the favorite parts of my job!) You can also look at the great book recommendations page or search the catalog.
The library is open most days during class with a pass, during study center, during lunch and after school on Tues., Wed. and Thurs. during conferences. You MUST be wearing your school ID.
Feel free to email any time at sweigert_r@shaker.org. I will reply as soon as possible.
I hope you have a wonderful year!
