Library Happenings

Take a look at the Virtual Library located within the Special Areas Webpage.

This is where you will visit when you are an early finisher with assignments or if Mrs. Galaska is called away. Have fun exploring the items I have posted!

Thank you for considering the library for your child's birthday celebration! Here are some guidelines to help with your book selection:

Find out what book your child likes the best
Check to see if we already have that book in our library collection by searching our online catalog at this link: http://library.tvsd.org/cataloging/servlet/presentadvancedsearchredirectorform.do?l2m=Library%20Search&tm=TopLevelCatalog
Purchase in hardcover or library bound
Have your child sign the book on inside front cover for her/his birthday so all will see
Have your child bring to Mrs. Galaska and I will snap a photo and share a birthday greeting on our social media pages
Or click here for our AMAZON Robeson Elementary Library Wish List

Library book selections are underway!

Students are able to keep the book for 12 days. After that the system indicates it is overdue.

Each week an automated overdue report is generated and emails are sent to parents if an email address was provided to the district. These emails are a gentle reminder that there is an overdue. Please have your child visit me or return the book during their next library time.

If a book is lost or damaged, please contact me and we will coordinate a solution, egalaska@tvsd.org

Keep on Reading!
