PAC Library
With the grant that established the Parent Resource Center, the PAC was able to purchase approximately 75 books for use by parents, teachers and other staff. There is also a small selection of books for children with respect to disability awareness. In the future, we hope to grow this selection of children’s books, not just for parents but also for the librarians as they have expressed an interest in using them with the students during library.
These books are in the Oak Ridge School library to facilitate easy access and tracking of these important resources. If you are not the parent of an Oak Ridge School student, just stop in to the library any day after 3pm (when the librarian is finished with students for the day) to set up an account in the computer system. This is simple and fast, requiring only your name and phone number. Once you have done this, you can come to the library at any time of the day to check out a book. Below is a listing of the books...
