The Newport News Public Library System shares teachers’ desire to help students succeed.  To aid in this effort, the Library tries to provide as much material as possible for students' upcoming assignments.  However, in some areas, the library does not always have enough materials for everyone who requires them.  In order to provide the best service possible the library has developed the Assignment Alert program.

The Assignment Alert procedure involves a form to be filled out by the educator and sent to the library at least one week prior to the start of the assignment.  The form provides the library with important information about the assignment, such as the subject to be covered, the length of the assignment and the materials needed.  This advance notice allows the library to gather all materials available on assigned topics to be readily available to the students.
