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 complete our online Main Library form OR our East Valley Branch Library form.
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.
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.
