Birthday Books

The SCDS library has had a "Birthday Book" tradition for many years. A student who wishes to participate, donates a book to the library in honor of his/her birthday, and a special book plate with the donor's name is then put in the front of the book. The student's name is also added to the online catalog record, so he/she can quickly look up the books that have been donated to the library in this program. The librarian keeps a tub of new books in the library work room which are waiting to be purchased as "Birthday Books". The cost of these processed books is $17.00. If you would rather shop with your child at a bookstore to select a "Birthday Book", please stop by at the SCDS library first. The librarian can quickly tell you whether or not the book you have in mind is already in our collection or on order.
