SERVICES AND PROCEDURES
The Teacher-Librarian is responsible for the selection, management and utilization of learning and information resources. Our specialized Library staff are resource people who provide for staff and students valuable assistance in a number of areas, including the finding of reading materials for pleasure, general information, or specific research topics. The staff also helps with orientation for all new students and "Library" classes at the request of teaching staff on specific unit topics related to their subject area.
Students wishing to use the Library during their timetabled class time will be required to sign in and out.
Priority for computer use will be given to Library programs for research purposes.
We now have WiFi. You can access WiFi on your PEDs by turning on WiFi, selecting "dpwifi" and following the instructions. Remember to update your password on your device as well.
All printing and copying (B&W only) is now free. Please DO NOT print images or graphics on the Library printer as it takes up too much toner.
