Middle School Library
The mission of the library program:
"Through collaborative curriculum integration, the library media program empowers students to be critical thinkers, enthusiastic readers, skillful researchers and ethical users of information." ALA, 2007
"Libraries store the energy that fuels the imagination. They open up windows to the world and inspire us to explore and achieve, and contribute to improving our quality of life. Libraries change lives for the better."
- Author Sidney Sheldon
