Arapahoe Public Libraries

Arapahoe Libraries is excited to partner with Littleton Public Schools to offer a new Student Card that allows LPS students to access many databases, eBooks, audiobooks, and other online resources for free. All students will automatically receive a free digital card when they enroll with LPS unless their parents opt out at registration.

These eCards will be for digital resources only, not for checking out physical materials and they will not receive a physical card with a barcode. If students would like to check out physical materials from Arapahoe Libraries, they can come into any of our libraries to set up a physical checkout card. They are allowed to have both cards as long as they remain LPS students. To access grade level digital resources at Arapahoe Public Libraries please visit the links below:

https://arapahoelibraries.org/lps-middle-high-school-resources

The students' login info is:

Username: lps(student ID #) - ex: lps123456

Pin: Last 4 digits of the student ide - ex: 3456

LPS Libraries Philosophy

One of the main tenets of LPS is Equity across the district.  In the library, equity is represented by the titles that act as "mirrors" (Rudine Sims Bishop) in which students can see themselves being represented as well as "windows" where they can peer into another's experience.  Not all books will act as mirrors and windows to all students, but we should have representation and engagement for all students in our libraries.

 

LPS library of things

The Library of Things is a collection of STEM resources available for checkout by any staff in Littleton Public Schools! Pick from coding tools, to robots, to building blocks and have these items checked out to you and sent to your school to enhance a lesson or anchor a PBL unit. Books to support novel engineering and STEM lessons are available as well!

Library Opt Outs

Parents may request a note to be added to a student’s account with guidelines on what materials, genres, levels that student is permitted to check out.  Notes can be added by the school-level librarian/coordinator or the District Library Services Specialist. Anyone checking out a book to that student will see that note in the student’s account.

Additionally, parents can opt their student(s) out of pubic library partnerships when registering/enroling each school year.  For more information, please visit: https://littletonpublicschools.net/support-and-services
