Reading for Fun

In addition to providing resources for student academic research, the Sherwood Library Media Program is committed to providing a wide selection of fiction and non-fiction materials for students to borrow and read for their own pleasure. Come to the Media Center before and after school or during lunch to browse through our book collections and borrow books of interest to you. Check out our displays of new books. Take a look at our New Media Materials listings. Join our Book Club. Read about and participate in our Black-Eyed Susan Program. Submit a book review to our "Students and Staff Recommend" page.
