Teachers: Here's how to use the DHS Library:

Sign up to use the library or any of our materials/A/V equipment in the Library Office or by emailing Heather Newman, Laura Nolan, and Susan Riley. Please sign up several days in advance.

If you are planning to use the web or books for research, please make time to meet with Heather Newman or Laura Nolan, your Librarians, to help facilitate a smooth research session.
