    GENREFICATION: We have Changed…  

    The fiction section is now organized by GENRE:  This means that books from the same categories are grouped together.  This will help you find quickly books that you like without searching the entire fiction section. Each section is arranged alphabetically by author’s last name.

    The genre categories in our library are: Graphic Novels, Classics, Horror, Sports, Historical Fiction, Adventure, Romance, Mystery, LGBT, Science Fiction, Fantasy, and Realistic Fiction. 
     PRINTING 
    Students may print from any of the media computers; there is a ten cent (.$10) PER page charge for any black/white printing.
     COMPUTERS
    Computers are for use at school to complete homework, class projects and assignments. They are not to be used for gaming, personal email, social websites or downloads. 
     FOOD/SNACKS
    Students should finish all food and drinks before entering the library media center. No food or drinks are allowed.
