NOTE: Elementary & Secondary Textbooks
The bulk of the Curriculum Library's holdings are comprised of textbooks that are sent to us on a depository arrangement. These items have been approved by the Utah State Textbook Commission. They include K-12 materials primarily, however a few college texts are included as well.

In the Curriculum Library, the materials are organized by various disciplines with the Elementary texts arranged before the Secondary texts. For example, in the bookshelves related to Language Arts: Spelling, Writing and Phonics come before English Literature. Elementary Math texts would come before Algebra, Geometry and Calculus. The Curriculum Library shelves have very distinctive signs to help you find the materials you need by subject.

When the materials are finished being cataloged there will be three distinct locations that correspond to the location codes in the online catalog: CURE - Curriculum Elementary texts; CURS - Curriculum Secondary texts and CURR - Professional literature for teachers. You will find these designations listed in the online catalog (UNIS) but, for the 1999-2000 school year, this will probably only apply to the cataloged Language Arts section.
