Welcome to Mrs. Tota's Reference Resource Website
Students, Teachers, and Parents:
On this page you will find an index that will link you to various valuable resources I have collected and tried out myself. All websites, databases, and resources are here for you to use to help you with your assignments, projects, research, or just for your own interest in a subject. You will also find under the Home Tab links to the public library of Dorchester County and the Maryland Digital Library Consortium. Below you will find our Freedom to Read policy, please read it as it applies to you and all that visit the library.
Happy Reading Everyone,

Students’ Freedom to Read
In the Library ALL students are welcome!
You can:
· Browse and check out any book you like, as many times as you like FREE of charge
· Find a diverse collection of books and resources
· Ask me for help in locating any topic, researching, or with writing
You will:
· Always find the library as a quiet place to conduct your research, read a book, or study
· Always be respected and treated equally in the library
I will:
· Gladly help you find what you are looking for in the library, whether it is available in our library or through our
interlibrary loan
· Trust you to choose your own materials
· Make every effort to not censor any library materials
· Always encourage you to broaden your horizons and explore your interests and new ones
