We love book requests!  If we do not have a particular book you are interested in, please see the librarians!  We have ordered books for students, staff and faculty in the past.  If you like a book or a particular author chances are someone else will enjoy it as well!

Donations of snacks are always welcomed here at the library.  We have students up to closing time at 5:30 p.m. and we try to provide a small snack for these hungry boys.  Please contact one of the librarians if you are interested in helping out!
