LIBRARY MISSION
STATEMENT
The mission of the library media program
is to ensure that all members of our
school community have equal access to our
print and non-print materials, develop a
lifelong love of reading, and become
effective users of information and
technology.
WE LOVE
OUR PARENT
VOLUNTEERS
We are so blessed
and grateful to have a wonderful group of
parent volunteers who work in the library.
We maintain a collection of over 19,000
items and manage an average daily
circulation of approximately 200 books.
These are exciting statistics that bring
special challenges. It is a huge task to
keep our books shelved and orderly. We
could not do this without the help of our
dedicated parent volunteers. If you would
like to become a part of this special
group please contact the PTO Parent
Volunteer Coordinator or give us a call
at 472-4364. We would love to have you.
We would like to say
a special "Thank You" to
MICHELLE LASLEY for being our Parent
Volunteer Coordinator this year! She did
an amazing job and we very much
appreciate all her efforts.
STUDENT CIRCULATION
PROCEDURES
Students may check out the following
number of books per grade level:
Kindergarten - one book, First and Second
- two books, Third through Fifth - three
books. A student may exchange one or all
books per visit. Books can be renewed one
time with the exception of chapter books
or project related materials. Books are
due within two weeks if not renewed.
OPEN
CIRCULATION SCHEDULE
Students are encouraged to take advantage
of the opportunity to check out books
every day. Our library offers the
following times for open circulation: 2:30-3:15.
Parents are also invited to come and
check out books from our collection
during these times.
BE A
MEMBER OF THE BIRTHDAY
BOOK CLUB
Your child's birthday is a very special
occasion here at Edmondson. Therefore, we
invite you to honor your child's birthday
by donating a book to our library in
their name. By doing this, you can help
teach your child the value of giving as
well as enrich the library at the same
time. If you would like to participate,
forms are available on the Parent
Information Table.
UPCOMING
EVENTS
The Spring Book Fair will be coming in
March. Each classroom will be assigned a
time to come and shop. You will recieve a
letter in the Thursday Folder which will
notify you of your child's day/time to
shop. We hope you are able to stop by and
join them for this special event.
