If any staff member needs to check out a book for instruction after today, please contact me. We will be working to collect all library books up until the last day of school and may be reaching out to staff for assistance. We thank you in advance for working with us to care for and preserve our library collection! Monday April 17, 2023 Welcome back from Spring Break! We hope everyone had a restful time off. T he JCMS library would like to remind everyone of the following procedures and policies for sending students to the library: Please only send two students at a time. This allows everyone to have the opportunity to send students from their rooms. If you would like to send up more than two, please call the Circulation Desk x1290 or x1291 . Students should always be sent with a pass that clearly indicates the name of the teacher that sent them. The library offices and library classroom are often utilized for students’ speech lessons. If you would like to use these spaces (i.e. for CSE virtual meetings, testing accommodations) please call the Circulation Desk ahead of time. As previously announced, the library has created and shared a calendar to schedule library events and bookings! (NOTE: Speech lessons are not posted on the calendar.) If you would like to schedule a time to use the library space and services, please call the Circulation Desk . Some examples of things to book the library for are: Bringing in whole classes to checkout books Receive assistance for book or resource selections Group testing Group work Meetings We are asking staff to view the calendar before sending up more than two students outside of Academic Support or to call the Circulation Desk . This will prevent overcrowding and disruptions, particularly when whole classes are booked. Please call with any questions. Please advise students that once they are at the library they must remain here until the bell. We have had issues with students coming and going between the library and the art room, for example. Trying to keep traffic and occupancy under control, as well as knowing where students are, is difficult without a structure in place. Not permitting students to bounce between classrooms will help with this. Thank you to everyone, again, for working together to ensure all students have equal access to the library and its services while keeping our learning spaces peaceful and secure.
