Our Library Resource Center (LRC) is located on the top floor of our school, above the main entrance. Students are invited to find and use different library materials; conduct research using both print and online sources, as well as get recommendations to encourage the enjoyment of reading. The LRC boasts an impressive collection of fiction and non-fiction materials, graphic novels, and several online databases. A growing collection of eBooks and digital audiobooks are also available online.
Books are loaned to students for three weeks. Students are able to place holds on items that may currently be checked out to another student. 6th-grade students may check out six items; 7th-grade students may check out seven items; and 8th-graders may have eight items out at once.
The LRC is open to students from 8:15 AM-3:45 PM daily. It also hosts morning study hall before school at 7:30 AM (except Wednesdays) and after school study hall until 4:30 PM (except Fridays).
Don’t just rely on Google to find information! The NBJH LRC web page has many great ways to find credible, current information. The online catalog, encyclopedias and informational databases (including magazine and newspaper articles) are available for both school and home use.
