Birthday Book Club
You can celebrate your child's birthday by donating a book to the library! For $20.00 you can pick a book and we will put a special bookplate in it to honor your child. You can also donate a book to the library in honor of your child's teacher. It makes a special holiday or end-of-the-year present.
Book Fair
We have two book fairs a year. One in the fall and one in the spring. Thanks to all the volunteers who help us.
Book Swap 
We have two book swaps during the school year. The rules are simple. The books to swap must be: in good condition, on your grade level and approved by your parents.

Parent volunteers
The library at Central Elementary depends heavily on parent volunteers. From processing magazines, working at the book fairs, or creating bulletin boards, we have a job for you. If you enjoy children and books, please contact us. We have a job for you!!
