Media Center Mission Statement:
The Gates County High School Library Media Center provides materials and services to our diverse community of students and staff to inspire a lifelong love of reading and learning
The Gates County High School Library Media Center is grounded in the beliefs that:
Locating, organizing, analyzing, evaluating, synthesizing, and ethically using information is a crucial piece of being a responsible, digital citizen.
Reading is a window to the world that can be experienced in a variety of formats.
Creating information and stories is just as important as consuming information and stories.
Access to information and story across multiple platforms is essential to learning.
Technology is a pathway to a global audience.

Battle of the Books
We are already gearing up for the 2023-2024 Battle of the Books. There are 16 books on the list, and I think they are pretty awesome. If you are interested in being a part of the high school's Battle of the Books team, see Mrs. Craig at the beginning of the school year. We will begin meeting early. Head over to the Battle of the Books page to see book trailers and book synopses.
