MVMS Library and Media News for November

Fri, 11/17/2017 - 8:26am
Welcome HCPSS Students to your virtual HCLS Branch!
All students now have an  A+ STUDENT CARD account to visit your virtual HCLS branch. Find your card in your hcpss.me homepage.  With your new card direct access to HCLS’ extensive catalogue of educational eContent in the classroom, at home, or anywhere you need to do homework or research or check out books.
 
Online Book Discussion - A new online book discussion for students has begun - Falcons Who Love to Read.  We are talking about our favorite books, making reading suggestions, and getting to know a like-minded group of students.  Please email me at deborah_finley@hcpss.org if you would like to join.
 
A new MVTV book review segment is starting and will air bi-monthly.  Students talk about their favorite books - and hopefully convince others to give them a try.  
 
New MP3 Audiobooks have just arrived:
Call It Courage
Salt to the Sea
The Hobbit
The Book Thief
Be on the lookout for our first batch of print books coming soon.
