Owyhee Library


Our goal is to help students develop skills to meet their lifelong informational needs and to encourage them to develop a love of reading.

The automated Follett System provides a quick and accurate system for checking books in and out as well as keeping track of our inventory. Students and staff have access to a PC-to-TV connection so that we can teach library skills, show how to conduct research and provide media presentations for teacher workshops. In addition, the library has a TV/VCR and 5 networked computers. One computer is for checkout and the others are for card catalog searches, doing research, working with the Accelerated Reader program and accessing the Internet.

Our students, grades 1 through 6, have two 1/2 hours of scheduled library time a week and free access whenever there are no regular classes or special programs (such as staff inservice) using the library. Kindergarten students visit the library once a week for 20 minutes. During our library times we may read short books or novels, learn library skills or enjoy library related games and activities. Our students love the library and are excited about reading! If you have questions  .....  check out your library!!!
