We are thrilled to announce that the library is now OPEN! On the days you are on campus for hybrid learning, you are welcome to come in before school, lunch, after school, or during your dismissal period to browse for books, read, study, work on homework, or just for a comfortable place to rest and relax. We look forward to seeing you in person! Those of you remaining in distance learning, the library has all kinds of things to offer you as well! See the Aug. '20 post called Library Supports During Distance Learning for all the details.
This week is National Black Lives Matter Week of Action, and this month is Black History Month. Here at the SBHS library, it is our goal to honor and affirm Black identities not just this week or this month, but year-round. The slides below offer some recommended reads, fiction and nonfiction, adult and young adult, that center Black voices.
I love this time of year when all the Best Books lists come out. Even though I read a lot, I am always surprised at the books I've missed when I look through these lists.
Whether we like it or not, our lives have become more digital than ever in 2020. Digital Citizenship Week, held annually during the third week of October, provides an opportunity for us to reflect on ourselves and our behavior online. Are we participating respectfully and responsibly in the digital spaces we inhabit? Here are some of my favorite resources for igniting the conversation about digital citizenship this year:
The SBHS library is here to support you during distance learning!
Welcome to the '20-'21 School Year! I must say, this is not how I envisioned starting my new position as teacher librarian here at SBHS. However, I am still super excited to welcome you to the digital (for now) SBHS library, and I can't wait until I can welcome you into the physical library space again.
This new library website has a lot to offer as you begin your year learning from home. Explore the site and its resources, and please reach out and let me know what else you'd like to see. |
