I'm building a "Sirius" DVD/Video and science book library for the community.

Currently all library material can be borrowed. Just ask at my next event. Not to worry. I trust you. ;)    

If you are a teacher in Michigan be sure to visit the link below

This is just the beginning of our educational program provided to all students of science. 

Books are available immediately.  There are currently several checked out.  We have about 50 more astronomy, science, & math books for kids and young adults that will be listed soon.

 Math, physics, and astronomy DVD and VHS library  for educators & members 

The video library consists of subjects pertaining to space, astronomy, math, & physics.  Although this part of the site isn't fully operational, members & educators are welcome to check out videos for personal use and classroom instruction.  You may click on any of the lessons below.  The hyperlinks will take you to the video description.  We are currently purchasing and updating the subject material.  Several subjects will be active by late summer  2004 and ready for the fall elementary and secondary education semester.

Click on the links for individual descriptions.  Most of the green links are active but not yet available.

Violet Links "ARE" available.  Green links are being ordered.  When finished our library will contain over a hundred VHS and DVD movies that will be available to all members and educators in the community.

Over the next few years our plans are to build a video library consisting of over 500 science, physics, math, and fun videos for kids and adults.  We have the selections picked out.  We'll be ordering several each month.  Click here for FUTURE VIDEOS.
