Educator Toolbox

Attend a real-time webinar for parents and educators or view recorded presentations to learn about databases, e-books, homework help resources, and more.

Registering your card as an educator increases the number of books you can check out and the number of books you can place on hold.

Register your students for library cards.

Homework Centers offer help from tutors, connection to resources, a space to study, and are always free.
