New service available from Youth Services

The Youth Services Department now has pathfinders available on line! A pathfinder is a list of materials available in the Youth Services Department regarding a specific subject. For example, if you are a parent searching for materials to assist with potty training, we have a pathfinder for that. If you are an elementary school student and need to read a historical fiction book take a look at a pathfinder for suggestions. If you are a college student enrolled in a children's literature class, and need to find multicultural picture books, there is a pathfinder to assist you. If you are a teacher and need to find materials to help with a lesson about ecology there is a pathfinder available.
Simply go the children's page of the Sterling Heights Public Library and click on the link to the pathfinders. Once you find the subject you are looking for, open it, click on a title and it will take you directly to the library card catalog to see if the item is checked in. Pathfinders are in PDF format so they may also be printed out. Please feel free to direct any questions regarding pathfinders to a librarian at the Youth Services Information desk. We will be happy to assist you!
