INTERVIEW BY BIG BLUE BROADCASTING CLUB!

The SMS library philosophy:

  • The library belongs to the students - the librarian is just taking care of it for them!
  • There is at least one book in the library that every student will like! Challenge the librarian to help you find that book...

The SMS library mission:

  • promote a love for reading and improvement of literacy skills
  • provide instruction in the use of information technology and safe search strategies
  • extend the classroom curriculum through an educational partnership between teachers and the library media specialist
  • provide opportunities for students and staff to become life-long learners who can independently and cooperatively access, evaluate, and use information

The SMS library motto:

  • The right book for the right person at the right time!
