Library Media Center
Welcome to the Park Hill High School Library Media Center!
The Park Hill Library Media Center promotes lifelong reading, learning and information literacy to enhance the school curriculum, as well as meet the individual learning needs and recreational reading interests of PHHS students and teachers.
Student Passes
Students visiting the LMC should have an e-hall pass and check in and out at the circulation desk upon arrival and departure. This verifies the student’s library visit should an attendance question arise, or the student needs to be located for some reason.
Library Book and Textbook Check Out
Books
Books may be checked out for four weeks, with the option to renew one time if needed. Students will receive overdue textbook and library book reminders via the district provided email account.
Textbooks
Textbooks and calculators are checked out through the Destiny library circulation system. Before you return a textbook to your teacher, make sure you have scanned it in through the library system. IMPORTANT: All textbooks must be returned to the library at the end of the course or students will be charged for the cost of the textbook.
Printing
A print station is located just outside the library for student printing.
Reserve the Library
