The school Library is the information base of the school. It serves as a point of voluntary access to information and ideas and equally as a learning laboratory for the students as they acquire critical thinking and pluralistic society. Good school librarians work closely with teachers to integrate information seeking and use activities into curriculum units that are designed to deliver content as well as to equip students to locate, evaluate, and use effectively and efficiently a broad range of resources: print, audio, video, tactile and new electronic data systems.
