Project Success is the Library’s initiative to help your class do great things with their next project or assignment. We offer: The Library can gather materials for use in your classroom by your students. We’ll pull books on any topic, and you can pick them up at the library of your choice. Alert the Dauphin County Library System that your class will be working on a project. Have us do all the work and place selected items on a temporary reserve for your class to use in the library. Ask the professional staff at the Library for assistance with your questions. Allow us to help your students succeed.
