What's in the Library

1. Search the library catalog.
2. Use a computer at school. Using the databases in the LAUSD Digital Library you can search for magazine, newspaper, encyclopedias, reference materials, maps, careers, and more for any research project. To search, enter a word or words in the box and click one of the search buttons: Everything, Subject, Title, or Author.
3. Use a computer at home to access LAUSD Digital Library resources by remote login.
4. Browse the shelves. Once you find the bookshelf for a book you are interested in, look through the books on the same shelf, since they are likely to be on a related subject.
5. Ask. A librarian, teacher, or aide can help you find what you are looking for.

Support the Book Fair!

Proceeds from our annual Book Fair are our only funding for new book purchases.

The library receives copies of books that have not been published for us to review.

Students are encouraged to read the book, in rough form, and write their opinion.

We try to order those books when they are published, based on student recommendations.

These books are kept on a book cart near the circulation desk.

Sign out only one at a time, please.
