Library Resources

Welcome to the Library

The Fenn School Library is a hub of student activity throughout the day. Classes visit the library to learn research and information literacy skills. The librarians teach students how to use computer databases, evaluate the reliability of source material, produce bibiliographies, and other skills.
 
Students often drop in to ask for assistance with projects and find books for individual reading. The library also exhibits student art and projects and serves as a meeting place for study groups and student organizations.
 
The library has over 9,000 items in its catalogued collection to support the school's multi-faceted curriculum. Students also have access to our reference section, periodicals, audio books, and extensive collection of online subscription databases.

The mission of the Fenn School library is to provide a learning environment in which students are encouraged to ask questions, and to seek answers; to read, write, study, and browse; to provide a collection that enriches and extends the curriculum, and entices students to read; to provide instruction that is literature based, as well as instruction in information literacy and research skills; and to create by setting an intangible tone of warmth and acceptance, an atmosphere conducive to study, research, browsing, and exploration.
