Library Month
April was National Library Month. To celebrate, we are featuring a beautiful display that will remain up for a bit. We also have new, fantastic books!
Read for the Sake of Reading!
Can't Spell Treason Without Tea!
Adult, Fantasy
The Talk by Darrin Bell
Young Adult, Graphic Novel
God of the Woods by Liz Moore
I loved this book! There are so many rich layers of character and plot development that intersect, keeping the tension taut. Barbara Van Laar should be the heir to the Van Laar fortune. She is the newest addition to a summer camp program run in the rugged, West Virginia mountains, on the vast family land adjacent to their mansion. When she goes missing, we learn she was caught in an intricate web of deceit and tragedy that has plagued the family. She is not the first Van Laar child to disappear. This double mystery will keep you guessing.

Censorship
Our books are selected by fully qualified Teacher Librarians. Parents are able to view the check-outs of their own students on Destiny. While we respect the rights of each parent to choose material for their own children, we also strive to respect our students' right to read. To prevent your teen from checking out a specific book at the DNHS library, please email mfurtado@powayusd.com.
Fire Code:
Due to fire code regulations, the library may close temporarily to new patrons when we become full. Thanks for your patience as we observe proper safety protocols.
