Looking for your next great fiction read?
Sorry for the inconvenience:

Google Authentication Change:
The HDSB is transitioning to a singular authentication platform for all HDSB users on Monday, April 29, 2024. This change includes all student accounts and will slightly alter the login process. Watch this video demonstrating the new process, and see Mr. Thomson in the library if you have any questions.
Eating in the Library:
The CKSS Library is a place of quiet work, reading, and study. If you wish to eat a snack in the library while doing these things, you may. Using the library for eating a full lunch is not allowed.
The library is not a place for eating lunch and/or socializing loudly; please move to the cafeteria or a hallway location if you want to do these things. Thanks for your cooperation.
