School libraries are only open during school hours. The public library is where many of our students go to do their research or homework. Unfortunately, lack of space for computers and book collections limits what the library can currently offer.

A new facility would include much needed space for collections, computers, study rooms for small and large groups, as well as an area designed specifically for teens and young adults.
