We are giving our students the opportunity to enjoy reading!
Working Libraries

A “working” library is one which provides:

  • An average of fifteen to twenty books per student at a school

  • Multiple book checkout capability
    for research, assignments, or
    pleasure

  • Computer based resources and
    other media equipment for
    student use

  • Online and hard-copy
    subscriptions to leading
    academic resources such as
    journals, newspapers, and
    magazines

  • Quiet study space

  • Space for class visits

  • Access to dedicated librarians who serve as both librarians and as teachers

  • Multiple enrichment programs such as book clubs, study groups, and research classes

Combined with the Library Fellows program, the Working Libraries program will both
inspire a love of reading in our students and increase student reading  test scores.
