It is the goal of OC Public Libraries for every child attending school within our area to visit the library or be visited at school by a representative of the local branch library during the school year.
Reach out to your school's closest OC Public Libraries location for more information!
We can help with:
- Library tours
- Showing how our Digital Resources can help with Research
- Instructing on how to find materials in our collection using our online library catalog
- Supporting classroom instruction by pulling materials for use in your classroom specific to topic and group's reading level
- Arranging for students in the class to receive library cards upon the date of their visit
