CAMPUS LIBRARY
Librarian
Mrs. Constance Hicks, (512) 841-9900 ext. 71253
I'm new to Akins! But you might remember me if you went to Kocurek Elementary.
The library will be open from 9:00-4:35 Monday-Fridays. You are able to access our resources in person during this time. Due to Federal and State funding issues, at this time there is not supervision for students afterschool as there has been in the past.
If you have overdue books checked out, don't worry! You can return them to the book drop in front of the school or in the library. All books can be returned to the library including books from previous years and other schools.
The Akins library is encouraging all students to read at least FIVE books this summer via the 5 Book Dive.
Students can read any five books, but here are some ideas to get you started:
