To hear some quick reviews (about one minute long) of some great children’s books, click here or on Podcasts in the menu bar at the top of this page. I have started working with some students to do some podcasting about their favorite books, and Mr. Carozza has included some students in his monthly podcasts.

Schedule
The Harold Martin and Maple Street School libraries are flexibly scheduled. Students are welcome to use a pass from their classroom to come to the library at anytime during the school day as long as they have permission from their teacher. They also will come in with their class or in small groups for stories, book talks, information literacy skill lessons, and to do research.
Harold Martin School Borrowing Information
Preschool students may sign out one book. Kindergarten students start out the year with one book, and may begin to get out two books later on in the year (usually around January). First through third grade students may sign out up to three books at a time. Books are signed out for one week.
Maple Street School Borrowing Information
Maple Street students may sign out as many books as they can be personally responsible for – most students choose three books or less.
Books are signed out for two weeks.
In both schools, books may be renewed as long as no one else has requested them. The replacement cost of the book may be charged if a book is lost, or damaged beyond repair.
