It is the mission of the District Library Media Centers to ensure that all students and staff are effective users of ideas and information. This includes having the ability to efficiently and effectively locate, evaluate, and use various forms of information. This mission is accomplished by: Providing intellectual and physical access to resources in multiple formats; providing instruction to foster competence and stimulate interest in reading, viewing, and using information and ideas; and collaborating with other educators to infuse information literacy skills into classroom instruction.
"Students, educators, administrators, and all members of the community continue to grow and learn as they progress throughout their lives. With a certified school librarian at the helm, school libraries provide a dynamic learning environment and suite of services that are vital to a school’s learning culture. School librarians play a critical role in building a school’s collective capacity as they partner with other educators to enrich curriculum and design authentic learning experiences that harness curiosity, model responsibility, inspire exploration, promote creativity, and deepen understanding. School libraries are key to equity in schools as learners pursue knowledge, collaborate, and develop leadership through personal and professional growth."
