Library Policies and Information
-
ABES Library classes form part of the Encore rotation, alongside Music, PE, Art, and Technology. We will be learning about how to find good books, how to search for quality information resources, and how to use that information responsibly. Students will visit the library every 5 school days, and library books are due on library day. Because this is a tricky schedule to remember, please ensure that students keep their library books in their backpacks. Kindergarten students may check out one book per visit, while first through fifth graders may check out two books.

We invest our time and skills in nurturing, promoting, and advocating for a learning environment that maximizes services and equitable access to resources. Our library programs are essential to a school-wide culture of innovation, achievement, and collaboration. Knox County School Librarians are forward-thinking leaders who model inquiry, information literacy, technologies, and trends in reading and instruction. Our professional charge is to inform and empower by fostering a safe environment where users can read, explore, question, solve, and create, leading to Excellence for Every Child.
