Looking for a series of library lessons that actually gets students excited about learning call numbers? Your students will love becoming Library Detectives! This flexible, hands-on unit guides learners through library organization and builds the foundational skill of reading call numbers. Students will explore library organization through inquiry-based library activities, practice with easy to prep sorting activities, and take assessments masked as case files. All so that they can earn a fun library license!
Designed especially for elementary library lessons, this flexible, multi-day unit turns library skills practice into a fun investigation. Over a series of three to four lessons, students take charge of their own learning as they discover patterns in library organization and prove their knowledge by earning their very own Library Detective License!

Maybe your book care rules are a bit different? Maybe you have rules that you’d rather emphasize? Maybe you want the lesson to be shorter? Or longer? The choice to edit the product makes all of these things possible!

✅ Three editable rookie cases that guide students to uncover key organizational clues

- “My students really enjoyed being a library detectives. I will use this over and over”
- I used this in the library to introduce the spine labels and different areas of our library. My kids LOVED doing this!! I played the Mission Impossible music in the background, gave them all magnifying glasses, and gave them a time limit in each section. We all had a blast! Plus, there is enough material for a few weeks worth of lessons since I only have them for 30 minutes. Thank you!!
