Mission Statement
Our purpose is to foster a love of reading and lifelong learning by maintaining a relevant collection, guiding students to using 21st century digital skills, and promoting intellectual integrity, diversity and freedom of inquiry expression. The library supports academic goals by serving as an information center for research, collaboration, and education.
About Us
The McCallie-Kennedy Library, serving grades 9-12, offers daily access to more than 10,000 volumes plus online and audiovisual resources for student and faculty use. Our subscription databases are available to our patrons both on and off campus. In addition, library personnel are available to assist students and faculty with research questions and materials selection.
Students and faculty are encouraged to check out books for assignments and pleasure reading using our Web-based holdings catalog called Destiny. Darlington’s libraries provide students, faculty and staff with multi-disciplinary technological databases and print resources, as well as instruction on how to accurately access, utilize and critically analyze information from a variety of venues. We also encourage an active learning environment where students are able to learn in groups as well as through individual study.
