Students can check out library books & resources using their school ID number. They can visit the library and use our self check out stations to scan their student ID badges or manually type in their number on the provided key pad, then check out their books & resources. 

Students may check out two to five items at a time. 

All of our eBooks and audiobooks are available in MackinVIA. Log in through ReadyHub using your Garland ISD credentials. 

Through MackinVIA, you will be able to:

• Check out books from our eBook collection
• Listen to books in our audiobook collection
• Access links to our various database resources for English, Science, Social Studies, Math, and College and Career courses
• Access practice tests & study materials for select Advanced Placement & CTE courses as well as college entrance exams

To access databases and other resources, please join the RHS Library Canvas page. 

Any book, except manga, that you check out may be renewed as long as there is no request for the item from another student.

There are two book drops for your convenience.

As you enter the library, there is a book drop where students scan in. The second is a secure book drop located outside the library doors. 

Books are due back to the library three weeks after they are checked out. As long as the book is returned, there will be no late fee. However, if the book is not returned, the student will be responsible for the full cost of the book. Students that have overdue books are at risk of being added to the Loss of Privilege (LOP) list and could possibly lose exam exemptions or other privileges.

If you lose a book, you will be charged for the cost of that book. If you find the item later and return it in good condition, you will receive a refund. If an item is so damaged that it can't be returned to the shelf, you will be charged for the cost of that item. If an item is just slightly damaged, any charges will be based on district guidelines.

Yes! Students may print in the library from any of our student computers. Printing (black-and-white printing only) costs $0.10 per page.
