How many books can I check out?

There is no limit to the number of books teachers can check out. We ask that you return books after they are used and remember others will want the same book. If you are using media books in your classroom library exchanging them monthly is a good practice. Reminders will be sent monthly to teachers to help prevent lost books.

 

How do I find a book?

You can search the Destiny Catalog anywhere you have Internet access. If you login to Destiny with your MPCS melt login you can also go to the My Info tab to see the items you have checked out.

What equipment is available?

Staff members may check out listening centers with headphone, ActivVotes, and ActivSlates are available to check out for the year. There are also digitals cameras staff member can check out for occasional use.

 

How should students return their books for class visits?

The day before your scheduled visit media staff will bring a media basket to your room. This is everyones reminder that the next day media books need to be returned. First thing on the morning of your scheduled visit we ask all student books be gently placed in the basket. The baskets of books should be taken to the media center first thing in the morning to give us time to process the books. 

 

When can students check out books?

In addition to their regularly scheduled time students can check out books during the school day once they have checked in with their teacher. We ask that they have permission and a pass when they come and no more that two per class at a time. With weekly visits this may not be needed often but we want to try to accomodate students when they need books.
