We are currently updating our videos. Be advised- the video listed may not be available.

Cable in the Classroom videos are shelved in the Lapeer East Library and are available for use in your classroom until the date shown after the description. Teachers at Lapeer West can have the videos sent through the school mail. We add to our collection daily. If you find a video you'd like to have permanently, tell a member of the library staff; they’ll consider buying it for the library collection.
Classroom videos are also available in our professional collection (use the library's computer catalog) and from REMC 14 (use WebMax).
