Visiting Our Library
Embedded Files
Students at Holly Ridge Elementary visit the library with their class as part of the specials rotation. In each 45 minute library class, students learn Information Literacy and Research skills, develop a love of reading, and participate in lessons that address the International Society for Technology in Education Standards. Students will also have the opportunity to check out books during each library lesson.
Students are also encouraged to visit the library at any time throughout the school day to independently check out books. Teacher permission is required.
Parents are always welcome in our library as well! If you would like to stop in and check out books for your children please feel free to do so. If you would like to volunteer in the library please email Ms. Mosedale at amosedale@wcpss.net. We always greatly appreciate your help!

LIBRARY BOOK CARE
LIBRARY BOOK CARE
Follow these book care tips to keep library materials in good condition:
Always carry your library books in a book bag to protect them from weather. We recommend carrying them in a plastic grocery bag inside the book bag to protect them from accidental spills by water bottles and lunches. Library books must stay dry at all times. Wet books mold, and mold can spread to other books on the shelves. Yuck!
Keep books in a safe location at home. Choose a table, shelf, or other area to consistently keep library books so that you will know right where they are. Choose a spot where books will be protected from pets and younger siblings. Ms. Mosedale recommends keeping library books in your backpack--then you always have them with you if you need to read them in class or return them to the library!
Use a bookmark! If you need one, design your own out of a piece of scrap paper!
If you damage a book, return it to the library immediately. Ms. Mosedale can often repair it and make it good as new!
