The New Market Elementary School library program is an integral part of the school curriculum.  Students in grades 1-5 attend library class once a week for forty minutes.  Kindergarten students attend two thirty minute library classes each week.  During class students participate in story time, literature response activities, library skill, or research lessons, as well as locate books for check-out.  Third graders, fourth graders and fifth graders also learn to use the library's computerized search program.  This search program helps them to locate books in the library which will support classroom lessons or provide for their reading enjoyment.  Students in grades 2-5 also have the opportunity to come to the library on their own to check out books during specified "Open Library" times.
