Welcome to the Library!
You will meet a person who works at the library. Someone who works at the library will always wear a nametag. You can call them by their name!
The librarian will talk about how to use the library.
- It’s free to borrow books, movies, and toys, but you have to bring them back.
- You can also download movies and music online through the library’s website!
- You need to have a library card to borrow things or use the computer.
- You do not need to have a library card to come to the library and play, hang out, or see a show. Anyone can come to the library whenever they want. The library is for everyone.
At The Library
It’s exciting when your class visits the library! Sometimes you can get a library card, check out books, or even see a magician.
When you visit the library:
- You will use a library voice. It’s quiet!
- If you already have a library card, bring it!
- If you have any books to return, bring them with you. The librarian will show you where to put them.
- Ask the librarian where to find the books you want.
- Remember to check your books out before you take them home! You will need to bring your books back in three weeks.
- Always listen to your teacher’s instructions!
