Our library is open to all members of the ADL school community! Come in to find a great book, do research, make projects, brainstorm amazing ideas, or simply curl up in a cozy space to read.
The goal of the library is to provide every member of the ADL community with the best resources for academic and personal growth.
Library Procedures
About the Collection
The library has a wide range of materials covering a variety of subjects, interests, and reading levels to support and enrich the curriculum. Recognizing the fact that our library contains materials from picture books through adult books, we encourage parents and guardians to discuss their children’s reading selections with them.
Circulation
You may borrow up to 3 items at a time.
Items are due back 2 weeks after checkout.
You may renew an item if no one else has requested it.
Overdue Items
No fines are charged for overdue items.
A replacement cost will be charged for lost/badly damaged items.
You cannot attend a dance with a book that is more than 30 days overdue.
An item 60+ days overdue will prevent you from borrowing additional library material until those items are returned.
