Library Resources for High School Students

Welcome! This guide was created to help high school students to find and use library resources for their AP English class.​

Before your library visit:​

Only Circulation staff can issue library cards. Your high school must have an agreement with LMU to get a library card - ask Circulation staff to find out if your school has an agreement. Outside of normal business hours, call the Circulation Desk in advance at 310-338-5709 to make sure that staff will be available to issue library cards.

What should I bring to the library?

• A copy of your research assignment, so you can get help from a librarian!
• Your High School ID Card
• Money for parking, photocopying, printing and food
• A flash drive to save your research notes, database articles, etc.
• A laptop computer, wireless internet is free for guests
