Media Items

The Media Center/Library consists of physical and visual items for educators to use in their classroom. We utilize Insignia Library to make it easier for teachers to reserve items online. Booking items is now simpler than ever! You can also e-mail media@mcoe.org or call ahead for pick up (a two hour lead time would be appreciated).

Log into our Portal at https://portal.mcoe.org and click on Insignia or go straight to Insignia and sign in with your Google account.

For library items checked out through Insignia online: each district/site has a designated delivery day for weekly delivery. Deliveries are completed by the MCOE Warehouse staff. Please email media@mcoe.org to coordinated pick-up of items. You can also designate that you want to pick-up items any day of the week when booking your items.
