Library resources and information for students, parents, and staff at W.E.B. Du Bois Middle School

Welcome back, students!

Welcome to W.E.B. Du Bois Regional Middle School library.  Drop by anytime--with a class or on your own--to check out our new displays, work on a puzzle, or do homework with friends. We are here for you to browse, create, study, and imagine!

How many library books may I check out at any one time?

Students may borrow up to 3 books at one time. If you have overdue books, please renew them or return them to the library so that they are available for other readers to check out.

How long can I borrow a book for?

Library books may be borrowed for three weeks. You may renew books you are reading, as long as there is no one waiting for it.

If I bring a book back late, is there a fine?

No, we do not charge fines for late books. 

What do I do if I can't find a library book I checked out?

Let Ms. Guerin know as soon as possible.

I need help with research. What do I do?

Ask your librarians for help!
