In many ways, our library is the hub of the learning environment here at
Machias Elementary School. Each class - first
through sixth grade - is scheduled
for one 40-minute session each week, and each Kindergarten
class for one 20-minute session. Each class session
includes a check on overdue books, a lesson in
library/research skills or a story time, and a time for
checkout and silent reading or other quiet activities.
Students are also welcome to visit the library at other open
times each day.

Our Library is also the location of many events
throughout the school year, including staff meetings, evening
"Read-Ins", PTG meetings, Book Fairs, voting on
election days, and meetings for community groups such as Boy
Scouts and Campfire.
Throughout my formal education I spent many, many
hours in public and school libraries. Libraries became
courts of last resort, as it were. The current
definitive answer to almost any question can be found within
the four walls of most libraries.
