Library

  • My name is Michelle Williams and I am the librarian at Aurora. There are 20 classes that come to the library each week. When students come to the library, we have a library lesson for 30 minutes during which there is a check-out time. The students can choose from fiction, non-fiction , biography and the magazine section.   Students can check out Battle of the Books, Accelerated Reader, Newberry and a wide variety of other books.

    In general, the replacement cost for lost books or damaged books is:

    • $10.00 for paperback books
    • $25.00 for hardcover books
    • Some books may have a different price depending on their original cost.
    • Please see Mrs. Williams teacher-librarian if you have questions.
