2009-2010 Library News
This summer we upgraded our software to better serve our students and faculty and to help manage our collection. We are excited that St. Michael’s families will now be able to access the library catalog from home! We hope our students had a fun summer and took time for some pleasure reading. We look forward to seeing everyone and showing them the exciting changes in our libraries.
St. Michael’s enjoys a rich tradition of support from family book donations to our libraries. Please click the links below to learn more.
The Singleton Campus Library wish list is available to review or download.
Library Volunteers
We invite you to become a library volunteer on either the Bon Air or Singleton Campus. Volunteers are needed on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays for a variety of projects. No library experience is necessary! Our volunteer program begins in October and runs through May. Thank you for considering volunteering in the library!
Library
Both the Louise Fontaine Powers Library on the Bon Air Campus and the Ann and Buddy Allen Library on the Singleton Campus are open daily during school hours. The libraries provide an array of services to both students and faculty including circulation of books and access to online resources. Librarians Carol Wise and Diane Chess invite you to visit both libraries.
Lower School classes visit the library once a week. The librarian works with each class to develop reading, listening, and information literacy skills and also provides enrichment activities. Flexible scheduling is available in the Middle School library and students visit when learning opportunities arise. In addition, middle school students utilize the library individually during study hall, by class, or in small groups for special projects based on collaborative planning between teachers and the librarian.
