HUGO — When a student needs quiet time to reflect, research, read and write about assignments, they should make their way to the Hugo High School library. It has a new look and is very easy to use.
This year the Sequoyah books will be available to high school students. Sequoyah books are on suggested reading lists and have won awards.  
Some of the Sequoyah book titles include: Peak, Twisted, Grief Girl: My True Story, Diamonds in the Shadow and The Absolute True Story of A Part Time Indian. Students will be able to vote on their favorite Sequoyah book in the spring.
Many groups meet in the Hugo High School library. The Kiamichi Technology Center retail class meets one Tuesday each month in the library. Also, the student council meets every Tuesday morning in the library. Additionally, military recruiters, tutors and college representatives will all meet with students within the library walls. The first college visit will be from Southeastern State University from 11 a.m. to 12 p.m. on Nov. 6.
The library has a wealth of information to help students research and write. It also has eight computers that students can use to access important Web sites.
Mrs. Roberta Armstrong is our librarian. She is very kind and helpful to classes or individuals who come to research. She has a vast knowledge about all kinds of resources. If she can’t help it immediately, she will find the information you need and it will be waiting on your return visit.
Each week, this paper will highlight a new book of interest. We will give the title, author and share a short synopsis. We are hoping to increase the interest of high school students in books. The library is clean, full of new titles and has a great reference section. Come by and enjoy all the library has to offer.
