Assignment Alert

A service provided by the Multnomah County Library School Corps for teachers and school library staff working in Multnomah County schools. Use this form to share your assignments with the Multnomah County School Corps librarians.

What we can provide for you:

Booklists

If we don't have a Bucket of Books on your topic, check our School Corps booklists to find copies of our most popular booklists and instructions on how to create your own Bucket of Books using the lists. If your topic is not listed on the booklist site, we can create a customized booklist on a subject for your audience and send one copy of each book on the list to a nearby library for you to check out. Requires a three-week lead time.

Webliography

Let us create an annotated list of websites on a subject for your audience. Check the Homework Center to see if the library has already collected and annotated websites on your topic.

Visit from a School Corps Librarian

A School Corps librarian can visit your classroom to share books or show students how to access library resources for help with their assignment.

Fill out this form and we'll pull together materials for you and send them to your closest branch library.

You must be a teacher or school library staff person in a Multnomah County school in order to use this service.

In order to more efficiently serve you when visiting the library, we request your educator library card number so we may check out the materials to you before you arrive at the library to pick them up. Please add in the last eight digits of your educator card number. Questions? Please email us or phone us at 503.988.6004.

Please describe the assignment. The more information we have about what the students are looking for, the more helpful we can be.
Note: We need three weeks lead time to prepare booklists.
If requested, we'll send books from a booklist we've created to your closest Multnomah County Library branch. Please remember to bring your own box, bag or crate to collect the materials at your local library.

Thanks for letting us know about this assignment. Please tell other Multnomah County teachers and school library staff about our services.
