Celebrate Your Media Center!


April 13-19, 2014 marks National Library Week. All types of libraries- school, academic, public, special- take this week to celebrate the contributions of our nation's libraries and librarians and to promote library use and support. 

The Media Center offers many of the amenities you would expect, such as research help, a computer lab, and a robust selection of fiction and non-fiction, but we also offer other amenities you might not know about!

Do you read e-books or listen to audiobooks? Use your C/W MARS card or sign up for a BPL e-card to access e-resources for free on your tablet, phone, or e-reader. The Media Center website also lists many other resources where e-resources can be obtained for free!

Want to keep up to date on current events and local news? We carry a variety of periodicals, including Time, The Week, Sports Illustrated, Teen Ink, Popular Science, and more, as well as The Banner. 

Working on a project and need mobile technology? You can borrow a Chromebook for up to two hours- see Mrs. Klemm to check one out. While you're here, pick up your wifi password for use throughout the building.

Looking for a book to read, but not quite sure what you're looking for? Check out the frequently changing displays throughout the Media Center or ask Mrs. Klemm for a recommendation.

Interested in new technology or working with electronics? Stop by the Makerspace to test drive a Raspberry Pi computers or build a Lego Technic model.
