At the Goshen Public Library, we are here to support your essential work in the classroom. We are able to provide everything from materials for your classroom, 24/7 pick up with book lockers, school visits & more.
GPL Cards for Teachers
All Elkhart Township residents are eligible for a GPL card. GCS staff who live in another township can register for a professional use card to support their work. Apply at bit.ly/GPLTeacherCards or in person at the Circulation Desk.
Materials for Your Classroom
Need multiple copies of a book for a class? Want a DVD that connects to your unit? We can curate and gather materials for independent reading or class study in any subject area. Contact us by phone at (574) 533-9531. Or email the Children’s department for K-6th grade needs and email the Teens department for 7th-12th grade needs.
