Primary School Library

Welcome to the Galion Primary Library!

In Grades Pre-K - 2, students have a regularly scheduled library time when the librarian provides instruction in information literacy skills, reads stories, and provides guidance in choosing reading materials.

Students are encouraged to select Reading Counts materials as well as other reading materials.  We encourage students to sign out reading materials as they need them.  Students are also welcome to use the library outside of this class time at the discretion of their teacher.  To develop responsible use, we limit the number of books signed out to each student at one time.  We do this to help students track what they have borrowed and when to return what they have borrowed.

Information Literacy Skills include but are not limited to:

• How books are organized and cataloged

• Ways to locate and research resources on a specific topic

• How to integrate a variety of print and electronic resources into curriculum-based activities

• Study skills that will enable students to better utilize library resources
