Librarian Visits to Your Classroom

As part of our goal to encourage young readers and expand the horizons of children and teens, librarians are available to visit your classroom. We offer books talks, storytelling, and custom presentations on topics of your choice. We are also available to speak with teachers at department meetings and PTO/PTA meetings about library resources, programs, and services. See Department Contact Information at the top left of the page to schedule a visit. Or you may submit your request using either the Branch or Main form above.

Class visits to the Library

Students are always welcome to use the library during hours of operation. Class visits are scheduled on a first come, first served basis, and while we have expanded our class visit availability for 2008-2009 school year, we may not be able to accommodate all requests. To schedule a tour, please complete and submit this form. See Department Contact Information at the top left of the page to schedule a visit. Or you may submit your request using either the Branch or Main form   above. Please limit requests to one or two classes per visit.

Teacher Cards for Media Loans

Teachers may borrow media items (videos, DVDs, CD-Roms, CDs, books on tape/CD) for use in their classrooms without paying the standard check-out fees if they apply for our special Escondido Public Library Teacher Card. Items are subject to normal fines. Cards will expire one year from the date of issue.

Teachers must provide home and school address and phone number information on their application. In addition, identification and proof of employment is required.

To apply, fill in the Teacher Card Application and bring to the Customer Service desk at the Main Library.
