Welcome to our school learning commons

Welcome to the learning commons and to our program of information literacy. We believe that every student should have the skills necessary to navigate in today's information-rich society. Determining information needs, recognizing and selecting appropriate resources - whether print or online and managing the information are fundamental skills needed for successful academic research.

Staff

• Beth Dudenhoffer (Teacher-Librarian)
• Trish DeBruyn (Library Technician)
