All library books borrowed in 2020 and 2021 are due back JUNE 11, 2021. 6th and 7th graders returning to MS 51 in September who do not have any overdue or lost books are eligible for summer checkout starting JUNE 14. Blended students are visiting the library once or twice a month with their ELA classes and they can also drop off books in the library during homeroom on their in-person days. Fully remote students can drop off overdue library books at the school between 8 am and 3 pm. VIEW THE LIBRARY SCHEDULE FOR BLENDED STUDENT BOOK CHECKOUT.
