Welcome to the Holmes Library Media Center homepage.

Don't forget to check out the library's blog for more information.

We are getting very close to the end of the school year. This means that all library books must be turned in so the library can close for the summer.

Here are some important dates:

LAST LIBRARY CHECK OUT: Friday, May 10

ALL BOOKS DUE: Friday, May 24

Reminders will be sent out over the next two weeks, and fine notices following the reminders. Fines for lost books can be paid in three ways: cash, check, or online!

(To pay online, go to the Holmes home page. Mouse over the payment tab and choose web store.  Select "Misc. Payment" then Lost Library Book.)

Please email mmaneck@op97.org or call 708-524-3100 with any concerns or questions.

Welcome to the 2012-2013 school year!

Last week every student at Holmes visited the library. Ask your student about how to act in the library!

We are always respectful, responsible, and powerful through peace.

In the library, this means we:

- Use our inside voices

- Keep our hands, feet, and objects to ourselves

-Respect each other- listen when others are talking, and contribute to the conversation in a respectful way

- Respect the books! Don't use your book as a napkin!

- Come prepared!

- Do our best
