Who's Who in the library?

Betsey Cummings can be found in the library every day.

Catharine Potter is the K-5 Library Media Specialist and is in the library only at scheduled times.

Kaler Elementary Library provides library materials to students, teachers, and families. Parents are invited to request and borrow library materials for reading aloud through their children's library accounts. Students may borrow books and audio books from any South Portland School Library though interschool loan.

The South Portland library program also provides an integrated instructional component to students. Through library visits and work in classrooms, the library program supports reading, research and technology education.

What's New In the Kaler Library

We have had a wonderful start to the school year here in the Kaler Library.


Children have learned the library rules and reviewed information on book selection and parts of a book.


Cathy Potter, our new library media specialist, has been working with grades 3-5 on classroom projects and some lessons in the library.


Our fall book fair is coming soon! Please note the dates and times:
--Thursday, November 29th 8:30-3:15 and a Special Family Book Fair Night also on that date from 5:30-6:30
