Welcome
to the Queen’s College Library. Have a question? See Mrs.
Knowles, High School Librarian for help. The goal of the
Queen’s College Library is to provide an environment that
allows students to become lifelong learners and readers. The
library supports the curriculum of the school and encourages
the use of all materials located in the library. The library
endeavors to provide reading materials for leisure reading and
reference materials for research for both students and
faculty.
The
High School library provides a broad spectrum of learning
opportunities for large and small groups of students as well
as for individual students. The facility is designed to
accommodate various size groups as well. There are areas in
the library that may be reserved for classes or small group
use such as the cozy reading area, or one the large seating
sections. Individual computers can be reserved by students for
word processing and computer-based research. The library also
provides a scanning and photocopying service to students and
faculty.
The
library is open each morning at 8:00 AM for students who need
to research, read, or study. It closes at 4 PM Tuesday
and Thursday and at 3 PM on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. With
permission, students may also use the library during SQUIRT or
Form Assembly. Books signed out are on a two-week loan period.
Renewal options are available.
Reference
materials and encyclopedias may not leave the library. In
addition, materials that are to be used by an entire class may
be placed on reserve status.
Classes
are to be scheduled through the librarian for library
assignments. Faculty are requested to plan with the librarians
before assigning research projects so that students will be
able to produce a more successful final project. Various media
formats including books, periodicals, videos, CD's and
CD-ROM's are available for circulation by teachers and
students. |
