Checking out Count Library Books
Students must have a San Bernardino County library card to check out any book that is not part of the district-adopted curriculum. Students may apply for a free county library card with a school librarian during school hours. If students choose to apply after school hours, they must bring a parent or guardian with them. Students can search the county library catalog for a physical book, audiobook, or e-book. See the school librarians for more details or questions.
