I stay curious!

Camino Pablo Librarians work 32 hours a week - a majority of those hours are spent directly with students and library maintanance is secondary to that. In order to keep the shelves organized we LOVE volunteers!  Please help us with any amount of time you have to help shelve books, read to kids, circulation desk tasks.
 
How much Library time does my student get?
All students visit the library once a week during their classroom's scheduled library time.1st-5th grade students may also visit the library by choice during snack and lunch recess times, daily from 10-10:30 & various times between noon and 1pm.

How is our library funded?
Support from site PTAs and parent donations fund the books and repair materials. Moraga Education Foundation (MEF) donations help fund our school librarian salaries.Thank you to MEF and the Camino Pablo PTA for their continued support and funding of the library.

Does the CP Library accept book donations?
YES!  We love the generosity of our CP families.  When you are clearing off your home bookshelves, making room for your students' new reading interests, our library is ready for those donations.  We use your donations as follows: add them to the permanant collection, book swaps, and then we pass the remainder on to the Moraga Library for their fundraising book sale.
