Last week, the United Way of Delaware County hosted the annual Strengthening Families Supplies for Scholars event at the Willis Education Center, providing hundreds of families with backpacks filled with school supplies. As students prepare for the new school year, the Delaware County District Library emphasizes the value of a library card as the most important back-to-school supply.
The library offers online resources like Brainfuse, which provides daily tutors in various subjects, a writing lab for feedback, and language learning opportunities. INFOhio connects students with supplemental resources for core subjects. Within the library, students can find thousands of books to enhance their studies, including books on influential figures in American history and resources for test preparation.
Once classes are in session, library spaces become hubs for group projects, study sessions, and tutoring sessions. The Maker Studio offers opportunities for hands-on learning and creativity, with parents creating personalized items for their children’s school needs.
As students prepare for the new school year and take advantage of the Ohio Sales Tax Holiday for back-to-school shopping, adding a library card to the list is essential for accessing these valuable resources. For those looking for leisure reading, the DCDL Teen Librarian recommends YA books set in school settings to get into the school spirit.
For more information or to ask questions, readers can contact the Delaware County District Library directly. With valuable resources and support available, the library is a crucial partner in student success as they embark on the new school year.
