The second graders know the secret: any book can be found if you know how to look it up on the computer with InfoCentre. Pairs of students began searching for subjects and then finding the books in the nonfiction section by call number last week. This week the students will continue by searching for authors and then finding the books in the fiction section alphabetically.
Although the systems are different, this is a skill you can help teach whenever you go to the Portage Public Library. Later in the year the second graders will try using the Public Library system online and compare it to the system used in the schools.
