Toolbox for Teachers is for teachers and media specialists. Learn how to best utilize the library's online resources and how to contact us to set up visits. Toolbox for Teachers was created by the SWIFT (Student Web Instruction For Teachers)* Project. |
Library Cards for Teachers & Students
Any Minnesota resident can check out materials and use the Hennepin County Library's online resources from school or home. Suburban Hennepin County residents will need a Hennepin County Library card; others can register their local card with us. Teachers can register for an organization card which can be used to check out their classroom materials. To use our online resources you will need to use your personal card.
Classroom Resources
Integrate Hennepin County Library's online resources into your classroom curriculum. You'll find subject guides, tips on evaluating websites, online tutorials, and more. Planning on a major homework assignment where lots of focused library materials will be needed? Help out your local library by sending us a Homework Assignment Alert.
