Chromebooks
Chromebooks are now available to all students. Teachers please remind your students of the following:

 -Students need to CHECK OUT a chromebook before they use it, this is to keep track of the chromebooks
-They need to sign in with their student email account.
-Once done with it, make sure that they return it at the circulation desk.
-These chromebooks are only meant for school work and school related tasks.
-They are only meant be used inside the library. 

 IMPORTANT! Unfortunately a Chromebook has gone missing, teachers please be on the lookout if you identify a Chromebook, labelled LIB106.

 Thank you to Ms. Mareena for helping out with the Chromebook Orientation this week.

 Happy Women's Day













In celebration of Women's day, Women's History Month and and all women staff at EMS, please check out the library website by clicking HERE for a suggested list of books to inspire you this month and beyond!

 The library would like to be more resourceful to students especially in helping them in their school work and projects. I sent out an email to all head of departments in secondary to suggest books that they think could be useful for students and teachers. Please feel free to suggest books in the book suggestion sheet below (This needs to be done before Next week Thursday):
