Library Mission

Our mission is:

  • To teach students and staff to effectively access, evaluate, use and communicate information
  • To encourage the love of reading
  • To develop informationally literate students
  • To encourage active, compassionate, lifelong learners

Lost or Damaged Books

If a book is lost or damaged, the borrower will need to clear the account. There are a few ways to do this:

1. The library staff will print an invoice with the amount payable to replace the book. This total is the amount of the book plus 1.3% for shipping fee. 

2. The borrower can buy the same book to donate to the library to replace the book.

Lost and Damaged books must be cleared off of the borrower's account (students, teachers, staff and parents) at the end of each academic year. If the books were not cleared off of the account, the patron will not be allowed to borrow more books the next academic year.
