About the TES Library
Staff

A Good Read
With its overstuffed chairs and sunny southern exposure, the Trinity Library is a comfortable and welcoming place for students to be. Still only a few years old, the "new" library houses some 13,000 volumes, all the latest magazines, complete and up-to-date vertical files, the computer lab and eight research stations.
Seating is available for two classes at a time, and there is a most helpful librarian who seldom says "Shush."

About the Library
The TES library is located in Morgan Hall, a beautiful facility added to the east side of the Trinity quadrangle and courtyard in the year 1999.


Hours
The TES library is open from 7:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday, during the school year. Students may visit the library with classes when scheduled by their teacher, during their study halls, or after school.

Loan Policies
Books, DVDs, vertical file material, and back issues of magazines may be borrowed from the library for a period of two weeks. There is a five-day "grace period" after the due date. Fines for books returned after the grace period are $.10 per day per book, including the grace period. Overdue and fine notices are given to students weekly by their advisors. Reference material and current periodicals do not circulate.

Services
There is a copier available in the library for student use. Please see library staff if you need assistance. Additionally, there are several networked printers available to students. PLEASE be reasonable in your use of these resources. We strongly encourage that you e-mail information to yourself or save it to a disk. We hope to avoid having to charge a fee for paper, ink, toner, etc. The Internet is available at all computers in the library. Students must have a signed Acceptable Use Policy on file with the Librarian in order to be allowed access. Misuse of library computers may result in loss of privileges.

For Upperclassmen Only: Interlibrary loans are an option from Virginia Commonwealth University, the University of Virginia Library, and the State Library. All these libraries have catalogs that can be searched on the web. Please see the Librarian to request an interlibrary loan and allow at least one week for this service. The University of Richmond library has a limited number of passes available to TES students. See Mrs. Sprague to obtain a pass. Please behave in a mature fashion when visiting the University of Richmond.
