Study hall
The Keefe Library is open to study hall students during R1, 2, 3, 4, 6 & 7. Space is limited so prior sign-up is required. Students new to BLS will need to create an account on Oculus (look for the link on SIS). After requesting an account, check your email SPAM folder (under More in your BPS gmail) to retrieve your activation code. More information about using the Keefe Library space and resources can be found in the student handbook.
Before and after school
The Keefe Library is open and staffed by one of our two librarians every day from 7:25am - 4:00 pm. Students can always stop in (with a pass from a staff member) to check out or borrow books or to print.
Lunch
The silver lining to COVID necessity! The Keefe Cafe will be open to a limited number of students during each of the three lunch periods. Students will be eating at tables in the Fiction Room and will be expected to read or work quietly and to be neat eaters.. Please bring reading material, laptops, or other study materials as the library will not be open for browsing during this period. Check with dining hall supervisors to ask if there's space for you.
Game Day Games Day is back! Join the Card and Board Game Club and Keefe Library praefects for an afternoon of play every Friday after school in the library's Electronic Classroom.
