Inspired by Peter Reynold's classic book, "The Dot,"students from K-5 chose to participate in this year's "Dot Day."  After enjoying a reading of "The Dot," students created their own one-of-a-kind dot either digitally or on paper.  Click here to view this year's dots!

Dear Lake Forest Park families,

With the new school year starting, it’s a great time for all of us to fire up our brains and imaginations with some new books to read.  

Shoreline School District Librarians are working with the district to establish safety protocols that will allow for curbside check out of school library books.  At present, the district and health department have not given us the green light to begin this process.  

The good news is that KCLS Libraries are now checking out physical paperback and hardcover books for students and adults to pick up and take home to read.

Below is a summary of how you can place holds on books and pick them up at the LFP Town Center Library, Shoreline Library, or Richmond Beach Library.  

1) If you have a KCLS library account, move on to step 2.  If you don’t have a library card, you can get one here.

2) Go to kcls.org and search for books.  Place holds on the books you’d like to pick up. 

3) You'll get an email notification when your holds are ready. After you get the email, you will need to schedule a time to pick up your books.  

You can schedule a time for pick up in three ways:

a) Calling the library ahead of time.  Phone numbers and times are listed below.  
b) Scheduling a time using the myLibro app.
c) Walking up to the library without calling and following their procedures for pick up. Pick up times are listed below.
