Introduction
This online module will build upon grades K-2 lessons and prior knowledge of how to select books. Students will learn how to effectively use the Destiny online public access catalog (OPAC) and locate materials in the library media center (LMC).
The desired outcome or goals are for students to be able to do the following:
1. Explain that the materials in the LMC are used for reading, research, and learning
2. Identify the sections of the LMC (Everybody/E, Fiction/FIC, Non-Fiction/NF, Biography/BIO, and Reference/REF)
3. Describe the characteristics of items found in each section
4. Describe how materials are organized in each section
5. Access the OPAC through the computer workstation
6. Demonstrate how to search using the OPAC for a subject/topic, author, or title
7. Demonstrate the basic procedures of selecting materials (such as locating the appropriate resource for a chosen topic and using place markers, shelf markers, call numbers and asking for assistance if needed)
8. Demonstrate the basic procedures of checking out and returning materials (checking book for wear, using the library card, identifying the location of and scanning the bar code, waiting in line, asking for assistance)

instructional objectives
Terminal Objective 1: The learner selects and locates materials from the library using the online catalog
Enabling Objectives:
1a. Perform a search for materials on a specific self-selected topic
1b. Given shelf markers and Dewey posters, locate materials in the correct section of the library based on item selected from the catalog
Terminal Objective 2: The learner performs a basic, visual, power, or quest search for library materials
Enabling Objectives:
2a. Explain at least two ways searches can be performed (title, author, subject/topic, series, and keywords)
2b. Apply a limiter when searching to narrow results (type, award, level, interest level, AR/Lexile, year, length, rating)
Terminal Objective 3: The learner identifies sections of the library
Enabling Objectives:
3a. Compare two sections of the library by describing how the books in those sections are alike or different from each other
3b. Explain how the books are organized (call numbers, 3 letters of author’s last name, alphabetic order, Dewey Decimal System)
Terminal Objective 4: The learner demonstrates the procedure for checking out materials
Enabling Objectives:
4a. Demonstrate proper handling of books and place markers
4b. Using the prompt on the place marker and posters on the walls, determine if the book is a “Just Right book”
4c. Using the prompt on the other side of the place marker and posters on the circulation desk, determine if the book has signs of damage
4d. Identify the bar codes on the back cover of the book and front of the library card.
