Library Media Generalist - Nancy MacLeod

The library is one of the busiest places in our school. From 7:00 AM to 3:00 PM students and staff are actively browsing for books to read, looking at magazines, watching videos, researching using CD-ROM, using periodicals indexes, surfing the Internet or reading silently. We have 11,000+ volumes . Use our Online Public Access Catalog to find what you are looking for.
