Homework Help
Homework help live and in person: During the school year the library is
sponsoring a Homework Assistance Study Table from 6-8:45 p.m. Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays in the library's Meeting Room
B (second floor). If you want individual help with your homework questions, come
on down.
It is possible to find out just about anything you need to know on the Internet. The only trick is finding it. Hopefully these pages will help you the next time you need to do a report on a chemical element or Animal Farm.
