Library & Technology at Lincoln-Erdman

About Lincoln-Erdman's Library

The Lincoln-Erdman School Library welcomes students and staff to utilize our ever-growing and changing collection of reading and learning materials. All classrooms are scheduled for a weekly visit to allow time for students to choose books for pleasure reading. During research units, students have access to a wide variety of books and online resources to assist in their discovery of new knowledge.

Mrs. Jaeger is the full-time library assistant and technology, support person. Ms. Vollmer is the librarian and is here on Friday. They work together to encourage and support life-long reading habits, help students and staff locate materials in the library as well as online resources. Ms. Vollmer is at three other libraries in the district throughout the week but can be reached by email anytime.
