Maximo Elementary Media Center


The Library Media Center with a mission

The mission of Maximo’s Library Media Center (LMC) is to support and enhance the curriculum of the school and to provide equal access to information for all students. The Library Media Center is staffed with a professional Library Media Specialist. The Library Media Specialist is also the school Technology Coordinator.  The Library Media/Tech Specialist collaborates with teachers to create lessons, integrate technology, develop information literacy, and promote lifelong learning.  Volunteers are always needed.

A resource for students

The LMC is open from 8:20 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. on most school days. Students visit the LMC with their classes and individually or in small groups.  Students also participate in a host of programs offered through the LMC.  The LMC is equipped with a Computer Lab, where students can search for books, research projects, write reports, and work on educational Web sites.

Checking out books

Students may check-out 2 books for up to 3 weeks.  Books may be returned to the LMC using the book return, located just inside the door of the LMC. Lost or damaged books must be paid for by the student.  Parents can access their student's library account by using their student's PCS username and password.
