Information

Plain sticky notes

Students who want to join Hiking Club (beyond intro hike)

NO COTTON items- clothing may not have cotton listed on the tag. For example, no t-shirts, sweatshirts, or sweatpants. COTTON KILLS. First students to bring in the following items to leave in the library will be added to the WEEKLY Hiking Club group: 1. Hiking pants- athletic type, great to have a nylon shell 2. Hiking shirt- like Under Armour type material 3. Fleece jacket (or wool)- again, cannot be anything cotton; can have a nylon shell 4. Hiking socks- I recommend Smartwool socks; but again, they should not be cotton Shoes/Hiking Boots: I often hike in just my running shoes, but I do have hiking boots for muddy, rocky, deeply cold, or long hikes. Most students leave hiking boots here if they have them and just use when needed. Recommended but optional and does NOT need to be left behind between hikes: *wind or water proof jacket *gloves- fleece or wool, no cotton *hat- fleece or wool, no cotton

Getting a Library Card

How do I get a Baltimore County Public Library card?

To apply for a Baltimore County Public library card, visit the Circulation or Information Desk at any Baltimore County Public Library branch or any Mobile Library Services bookmobile stop and bring your valid identification showing your current mailing address. If you are 17 years of age or under and do not have valid identification, a parent/guardian must be present to show a valid photo ID and sign a registration form to allow you to get a permanent library card.

Sticky note

Imagine an athlete who takes several months off from training. It will take weeks, if not months of training to return to peak performance. The same is true with readers and their reading (Allington, R., 2005 Summer Reading Loss).

Sticky note

Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough (Oprah Winfrey).
