Teacher Resources
Welcome, Teachers! Manitowoc Public Library is proud to offer resources to enrich learning and enhance your classroom experience. Need materials for an upcoming unit, reading assignment, or on a particular topic? We are happy to put together a staff-selected collection of books/DVDs/CDs/toys tailored to your needs. MPSD staff can even get the collections delivered to your school (check your truck delivery schedule for weekly drop-off dates).

Manitowoc Public Library also has classroom packs of popular tech toys like Ozobots, Dash & Dot robots, Snapinos, Makey-Makeys, Osmos, and Squishy Circuits available to check out and use with your students! Our STEAM kits come with instructions and ready-made activities that make them convenient tools for fun, hands-on learning.
