At each book talk I present, I create a separate handout just for teachers advertising our library services for educators.

1. Just for Teachers
@ the library
kids@westervillelibrary.org ∙ 614-882-7277 x5
Educator Cards
 Eligible if you live or work in Westerville School District
 Bring a photo ID, proof of address, and a current paystub to the library to get a card
Perks:
Check out most books for 8 weeks at a time · Pay no overdue fines (except for SearchOhio items
and lost or damaged items)· Keep your personal and educator items on separate cards
Library Link - for teachers too!
Teachers can have almost all library items (books, movies, science kits,
music, and more) delivered to your school, just like the students! When
reserving an item, just select your school as the pick-up
location. Items are delivered daily by Meredith, our Library
Link Associate. You can return your items to your
school’s Library Link pick-up location as well.
Homework Help Center
Our Homework Help Center is staffed Monday - Thursday 5-8 pm. We assist students in
grades K-12 on a first come, first served basis. While we won’t do your students’ homework for
them, we will help them understand the assignment, organize their materials, and find ways to do
research.
We also offer many subject guides for assignments at www.westervillelibrary.org.
AR Reading Level Search Engine
Our website includes a Reading Level (AR) search tool that allows users to search for books that
match their level and books that are worth a certain number of points as well as find the
level and points for individual books using the book’s Westerville Library barcode.
