Welcome to Hanover Elementary Library! I am the librarian, Mrs. Mertz. I often refer to our media center as our library laboratory where kids from kindergarten through fifth grade come to explore and learn about books through research. In addition to e-books available through our on-line resource, Overdrive, our physical collection houses over 9200 books along with magazines to include: Kids Discover, National Geographic Kids, Owl, Ranger Rick, Sports Illustrated for Kids and ZooBooks, just to name a few. We also have 8 Google Chromebooks students use to research books, using our on-line catalog. During library class, technology lessons show students how to access, use, and evaluate internet resources. In addition, students are taught how to be library citizens by learning basic book care skills, responsibility, library rules and etiquette. Students learn how to locate books by learning about alphabetical order and the Dewey Decimal System. They also learn about literature with lessons focusing on genre, author studies, various book series, Caldecott Award winning books and Newbery Award winning books. Our collection and materials are constantly changing and growing, so our Hanover Elementary Library Media Center is always an exciting place to visit!
