Taking Requests!

We'll be ordering new titles throughout the year, and we always want to make sure to carry the titles YOU want to read in the library media center.  Feel free to submit requests to Mr. B or Mrs. Webb in person, or you can submit the "Questions/Comments" form on the left.  

Don't forget - we now have Catalist Digital downloadable audiobooks and FollettShelf ebooks available for you to checkout as well.  If you want a title in a particular format, let us know that too!

YouTube Channel

 

The LHS Media Center now has a YouTube channel with how-to videos for some of our databases and apps.  You can access the channel by clicking the YouTube logo on the right of the screen at any time or by clicking here now. 

If you have any suggestions for videos to add to the YouTube channel (or if you've created something awesome that you think needs to be included), submit the link and some information about it in the Questions/Comments form on the left. 

We'll be adding videos throughout the year, so check back often!
