What is the Lending Library?
What is the Lending Library?
Curriculum
The library has the non-consumable portions of most of the major Language Arts, Math, Science, Social Studies curriculums. This means we have teacher's guides, reading books, activity guides, but not workbooks or consumable packages.
We also have book sets for BookShark, Moving Beyond the Page, Lightning Literature, and Beautiful Feet curriculum.
Unit-based or Interest-Lead Learning
Does your student love dinosaurs, early American history, or math puzzles? We have learning activities, games, and books for all reading levels and in a wide range of subjects.
Come check out the library's Science models, Nonfiction Graphic Novels, hands-on activity books for science and social studies, books on art and poetry, and a wide range of music lesson and song books.
The Fun Stuff
Games, puzzles, building kits, osmo kits, reading books, cookbooks, PE equipment, audiobooks, CDs, and DVDs - we have it all!
Check Out Information
- Core Materials: Student textbooks, teacher guides, book sets, microscopes, math manipulatives, and musical instruments are all one school year check outs (due the beginning of June of the current school year).
- Supporting Materials (everything else) can be checked out for 3 months to support a unit or topic within your learning schedule or to enjoy just for fun.
- Each student can check out 20 Core items and 15 Supporting items at one time.
Immediate Policy Update: Item Returns
The previous requirement for students to return all items at the end of the school year has been changed. Returns are now only mandatory in specific circumstances.
- Enrolled Students: If a student remains enrolled for the 2026-2027 school year and wishes to keep their borrowed items, they DO NOT need to return them at the end of the 2025-2026 school year.
- Withdrawing Students: If a student is withdrawing from the school after the 2025-2026 school year, they MUST return all borrowed items at the end of their enrollment period.
- Maxed Out Limit: If a student has reached the maximum checkout limit for an item category, they MUST return some items before they can check out more.
The Lending Library has many items you might not expect of a school library! We have musical instruments, telescopes, microscopes, sewing machines, laminators, cookbooks, PE equipment, games, and learning activities all available to our Central Valley Charter School family.

Meet our Library Van at one of the following locations to pick up library orders or to make a library return. We will also accept ordering system returns with paperwork and securely packed in a box or bag you can leave with us (See "Returning OS/GO System Materials" below).
Locations and Times
See the schedules above for when we will be at each location:
Returning OS/GO System Materials (Items bought with student's educational funds)
Watch this video to see how to access your student's GO system inventory
NOTE: Items purchased with student's educational funds prior to the 2025/2026 school year are still on the OS inventory system. If you have been with the school for more than this school year, you will need to use the above link to request your combined OS/GO system inventories.
To Return or Not to Return?
All OS/GO system material items purchased through the school with state education funds are considered the property of the school. Non-consumables need to be returned to the school library when the student withdraws from the school. They may be returned earlier if the items are no longer needed for student learning.
When returning OS/GO system material items, you will first want to know what needs to be returned. You can access your child's "inventory" (all of the OS/GO system items you have purchased for them) in the GO System. Your IST may send this list to you, or you can request an inventory list HERE. The last column of this inventory says "Consumable" at the top. If there is a "yes" in that column, the item does NOT have to be returned to the school and if there is a "no" in that column then that item will need to be returned to the Lending Library.
If you think that an item is categorized incorrectly, please contact your IST.
