Use our new library catalog!

Follett Destiny is our new program.  You can visit as a guest or login with a user name and password that you'll be given ASAP.

https://hickman.follettdestiny.com


You can search for books, make lists of those you want to read, place holds, etc. (some things only work if you are logged in with a password)

If you type bt in the search line you'll get a list of books with book trailers (mini movies)...some are student created, others are authors reading excerpts, etc.  When the list shows up, click on the book you like and click the blue "bt" at the bottom of the description/additional info.
