Welcome back! We hope you had a great summer and enjoyed your summer reading!

Check out our updated Library Catalog! 
https://sacredheartschoolnj.booksys.net/opac/shs/
The current version of our Library Catalog allows it to be searched from home! Students may also log in with their Library accounts to reserve a book to be delivered to them at their next Library period. If anyone needs their Library account, please contact us at library@sacred-heart-school.org.
 

The Sacred Heart School Library serves as a resource and a place for learning and fun for students and faculty alike. It is our goal to foster a love of reading in every student. Students in PreK and Kindergarten enjoy a story time each week. Stories are chosen to fit the season, classroom subjects, and even just for fun!

In addition to reading stories or novels and library skills lessons, students in grades 1-8 have the opportunity each week to select a book to take home. All books are due back the following week, and may be renewed. Library skills for grades 1-5 are focused on learning more about how a Library is organized, searching a Library catalog, choosing and caring for books, and the Dewey Decimal System.  Grades 6-8 are honing their research skills and exploring different literary genres.

 

Remember that our online reference tool Scholastic Go! is always available for students who would like to explore it. Thanks to your generous support of our Scholastic book fairs, we were able to add the Scholastic Go! package of online databases to our library research tools. To try this resource, select Scholastic Go! from the Library menu and click on the link. Passwords will be sent home with students when they have been shown the resource during their library class, or send us an e-mail if your student has lost their password, and we will be happy to send it to you.

If you have any questions or concerns about our library program at Sacred Heart, feel free to contact us at library@sacred-heart-school.org

Happy Reading!
-Mrs. Asch & Mrs.Schmid
