Montair Library

WELCOME TO THE MONTAIR SCHOOL LIBRARY!

WELCOME TO THE MONTAIR SCHOOL LIBRARY!

Hello Montair Families, 
 
You can view our library catalog from home.  Just click on the red "Enter the Montair Library" tab (at the bottom of this page) and you'll be linked to our Destiny home page (Destiny is our Library Management System.).  From that home page, click on the tab labeled "Catalog", and you can access our entire library collection.  On the left side of the catalog page, you will see a Destiny Discover link.  Click on this link to view a list of our wonderful eBooks.  Students may use their assigned Montair User ID and password to access these books.
 
There is another tab labeled "TumbleBook Library."   TumbleBooks is a library of animated picture books, chapter books, educational puzzles, and games.   You can search through the online TumbleBooks collection by title, author, or subject.  Once you've selected a book, just click on the "View Online" tab and begin reading!  You have the option of using the automatic setting, in which books are read aloud to you and the pages turn automatically, or using the manual setting, where you can turn the volume on or off and go at your own pace.  There are Tumble Quizzes available to check on reading comprehension skills after you've finished reading a book.  You have to try this website out - it is awesome!!
 
Thanks to the generosity of our Montair families, we were able to add 120 new books to our library with our Adopt-a-book program during our 2024 registration!
 
If you're interested in volunteering in the library, you may contact your teacher if you would like to volunteer during your child's library period, or get in touch with me directly if you would like to come in during lunch recess to shelve books and supervise students.   
 
If you have any questions, please contact me at jwintrip@srvusd.net.
 
Warm wishes,
 
Julie Wintrip
