We have transformed the centralized library into six interactive iCommons spaces within our learning communities.  Each floor has its iCommons housing a variety of resources - ebooks, audio books, printed books and a substantial number of electronic databases All students, parents, and staff are automatically issued a library number. Students and parents may borrow materials for a two-week period and may renew them for a longer time if required.
