Teacher Collection
Our special teacher cards allow educators to check out titles from our Juvenile Deposit collection at the Main Library to supplement their classroom collections. This collection consists of children’s books, primarily for use in PreK-Grade 6, although also available to educators in middle or high school. To register for an Educator Card, come in to any library, call 304-343-4646, or email Terri.
