The philosophy of the School Library is based on the concept that its
resources and services are an integral part of the instructional program.
To that end we provide access to our traditional book collection through our
Online Public Access Catalog or OPAC, access to online databases, internet
access from within the Library and guidance in how to conduct research with
successful results.
_____________________________
Databases
Our databases are provided by the New York State Library. The New York
Online Virtual Electronic Library or “NOVEL, is an online virtual library
connecting New Yorkers to 21st century information via local libraries
statewide. NOVEL is currently supported with temporary federal Library Services
and Technology Act funds. New Century Libraries is an important statewide
funding initiative currently before the Legislature that proposes permanent
state funding for NOVEL."
