The purpose of the Oakley Elementary School Library is to promote information and digital literacy to all Oakley students, provide an inviting and supportive learning environment, and to help each student achieve their maximum potential. Fostering a love of reading in all students so that they can become lifelong learners is our mission.
1. TK, K, 1st, and 2nd check out ONE (1) book. TK and K keep books in the classroom.
3rd, 4th, and 5th check out TWO (2) books.
2. Books are kept for ONE (1) week. However, a book can be renewed up to 3 times.
3. A student with an overdue library book cannot check out a new book until it is returned.
4. If a book is lost or damaged, there will be a replacement fee.
Each year our students participate in the California Young Reader Medal where books are nominated and then voted for by children in California. After weeks of read-alouds in the library, students get to cast their ballot for their favorite book and help choose which book wins the California Young Reader Medal!
