MCHS LIBRARY Student Links

Click here to access the wonderful links Mrs. Boswell has provided. Use the access codes on the information sheet available at meetings or in the library.
PLEASE DO NOT POST ACCESS INFORMATION ONLINE. Many of the links and codes on the sheet give you access to SUBSCRIPTIONS paid for by MADISON CENTRAL for the exclusive use of MADISON CENTRAL STUDENTS. To publish the information online is to compromise access by allowing non-subscribers unlicensed access. If you do this, the codes must be changed for everyone! DO NOT POST ACCESS INFORMATION DIGITALLY!
