LIBRARY SERVICES

Metro West GLRS is proud to offer a library facility with books and media available for patron check-out.  These materials are available to school staff, parents, and other interested stakeholders.  Topics include academic support, technology access, parenting skills, disability-specific resources, and journals/reference materials.

CREATE PATRON ACCOUNT

To access materials, please create a patron account.  Once we verify your account information you will be provided a Patron Barcode.  This will be your number to check out materials located in the center.

CHECK OUT eBOOKS

Patrons may check out eBooks and read them on electronic devices using FOLLETT SHELF.

To access eBooks online, GLRS will create a Follett Shelf account for each patron.

Login access will be allowed through the assigned username and password.
