You can click on these links to find out more about the books, read reviews etc. You are under no obligation to buy the books from amazon, it is merely a resource. If you do buy a book the school library will benefit by a small percentage.
Students who wish to spend their study hall in the library, should report directly to the library and sign in. It is understood that this is an assigned class and that students must be on time with all materials that are needed to make proper use of the available study time. If the center is reserved by teachers for certain classes, it may be closed to the general student body.
Library computers are for research needs. The school’s
Acceptable Use Policy dictates their use. They are for educational
purposes only. You may not e-mail or enter chat rooms. You may not
download
to the hard drives.
“ Your Massachusetts public or campus library card and a computer with
Internet access will transform your PC into an information mecca accessing
millions of commercial full-text magazine and newspaper articles, as
well as thousands of books. The latest magazines are often online BEFORE
they even hit the newsstands!
These databases are licensed for use by the residents of Massachusetts
through the Massachusetts Library and Information Network. Access is
permitted from public, K-12 school, academic and special libraries,
throughout K-12 schools and academic campuses, or from anywhere you
have Internet
access and a Massachusetts library card.” (http://www.mlin.org)

When asked for a library card number, enter the 14 digit number from

not know the number, please ask the library staff.
