LMC Information


Mission Statement

The mission of the library media program is to ensure that students and staff are effective [and creative] users of ideas, information [and technology]. This mission is accomplished:

  • by providing intellectual and physical access to materials in all formats
  • by providing instruction to foster competence and stimulate interest in reading, viewing, and using information and ideas
  • by working with other educators to design learning strategies to meet the needs of individual students.
