Message from our Librarian
Hello Roughriders,
This is Ms. Redmond, the librarian. The library is located right across from the main office.
I have some information that will be helpful to you.
- You can print for your classes here in the library. Just come on in and follow the directions located near the printer/copier.
- Your Seattle Public Library Link account four-digit pin# has changed. It’s now the last four digits of your student ID#. Find your student ID# on The Source ((Not your State ID#)
- Change your password ASAP! Or you’ll be locked out of your laptop and account if your password isn’t 12 characters or longer. Here’s how:
- Log in on an SPS laptop
- Hold down the ctrl alt delete keys all at the same time
- Choose “change a password” from the list
- Be sure your new password is 12 digits/characters or longer, so you don’t lose access.
- Drop into the library to grab a library pass during passing time if you know you’d like to come down to book shop, ask a question, work on your own or with a peer.
Cheers,
Ms. Redmond, M.Ed.
