BEHS Library Information for Substitutes

From Cathy Belben, Librarian:   extension 3128; email: cbelben@be.wednet.edu

Updated September 2006

Welcome to BEHS!  We’re glad you’re here to work in our building.  The following information will, we hope, help you have a successful day with our students and give you some information about library usage.

Library Hours

The library is open for student and staff use from 7:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. If you need to use a computer during your prep period, feel free to come in and we’ll help you. We have internet access and the complete Microsoft Office software available.

Library Use by Entire Classes

Teachers schedule use of the library with me in advance, so there should be a note of that in the lesson plans the teacher left for you. If you need to check the library schedule to confirm or clarify, check the website at http://www.be.wednet.edu/OurSchools/Hs/library/weekly%20schedule.htm or call us at 3128 or 3129.

Library Use by Individual Students

Students may visit the library with a signed pass from you that indicates what they are coming to the library to do. Students without a pass will be sent back to class. Please do not send more than 5 students at a time. If you do send a group, please call 3128 first to confirm that we can handle them all—the library is often busy, and we may not be able to supervise extra students.

When you send a student to the library, please tell them when you expect them to come back to class, and write this information on the pass so we know how long they are permitted to be in here.

Thanks for your cooperation! Have a great day at BEHS!

Cathy
