The Global Read Aloud invites people all around the world to read the same book and connect with others far and wide. Point Library invites you to join us. Here's how:

​Can you read 25 books this school year? I bet you can! Join in the reading fun and challenge yourself to read more with the #PointREAD25 Reading Challenge. 

​Check out the video below for details on how to participate!

If you do not have the reading log referred to in the video, click here to make a copy and start reading now!

Along the way we will have activities and groups, special incentives, and many opportunities to celebrate our success. Stay tuned!

For at least the beginning of the 2020-21 school year, students will not be coming to the library to browse and check out books. Instead, students will put books that they would like to read on hold and the library staff will deliver the books to the students. Please watch this video for a demonstration of how that process will work. Let me know if you have questions. 

​If you prefer written directions, you can access those here. 

There are many new ebooks and audiobooks available now for checkout & download from the Point Library catalog (Follett Destiny). You will need to login in order to checkout a book. Use your Prairie username & password. Did you forgot what that is? Contact Mrs. Wilding via email if you need help! 

Maybe you feel like it's been summer for a while because we have been apart for long. But summer is only beginning and we will not be back at school for quite a while. 

Reading in the summer (and always) can take multiple paths -- audiobooks, print books, ebooks, magazines, DIY projects, and much more. The image above contains many links to resources that will help you Blaze a New Trail this summer. 

Keep reading! Contact Mrs. Wilding if you have questions about how to access resources or suggestions for new books or resources to purchase! We will be adding new ebooks and audiobooks in early July.
​
Enjoy your summer and we'll see you next fall!

Starting this week, Point students can request up to 5 books from the library and pick them up at the curb in front of Point on Thursday between 4 and 6. So search the catalog and request books today. See this form for details. [Update: Curbside Pickup is not available during the summer months.]

We hope that we are able to get back to school as soon as possible after April 30 but in the meantime we are fortunate to have access to many audiobooks and ebooks to keep us engaged and entertained. Check out these options! 

Watch this video for a demonstration on how to access electronic books and audiobooks from the library. 

Apps for accessing ebooks and audiobooks are available from our 3 vendors. Click on the links below for more information:

• Follett books via the Destiny Read app (for iOS only, Android app expected soon)
• MackinVia
• Overdrive (Sora app) - scroll down to the Download the App section

Please email Mrs. Wilding if you have any questions or problems accessing these and other library resources. 

A Long Way Down was a quick but intense read! Now it's time to roll-in to the next read..... No Fixed Address by Karin Nielsen. Reading starts on Thursday, March 12 in the Library at 7:30 AM. See you there!
