The Alhambra Civic Center Library would like to assist you in preparing throughout the school year. By working together, teachers and librarians can offer students resources and skills to achieve greater success.
HOMEWORK ALERT
-
Inform us as soon as possible of upcoming assignments. We can research our collection and, if needed, designate some children's books as "Library Use Only" in the Children's Department.
-
Give written assignments to students to avoid confusion on the parameters.
-
Allow us to pre-check any bibliographies that you produce to see if we own those titles or can suggest similar titles.
-
As we cannot provide enough copies for all students assigned the same topic, please consider alternate related topics.
-
Accept a variety of sources, as entire books on a limited subject often do not exist.
-
Schedule all class visits at least 7 days in advance. We can then be properly staffed and prepared for your arrival.
-
Limit phone reference questions to no more than 5 specific titles or 5 titles on a subject. For more extensive requests e.g., Teacher Packs, please give us 3-5 working days to gather the best materials for you. Scheduling is at our discretion.
-
Promote Library programs and general use of the Library!
The Children's Room circulating materials are selected for children's reading interest. The Homework Center non-circulating materials and the Children's Internet workstation are provided for their curriculum. Photocopiers, both black and white and color, are located in the Children's Room.
