The
Madison #1 Library Media
Center offers
advanced technology as well as the best in children's literature to our
students and teachers. Students and teachers have access to a fully
automated library system with computers for online catalog searching as
well as for Internet research. Our PTO funds the site license for EBSCO
Middle Search Plus, a magazine index and reference source on the World
Wild Web, which can be used at school and at home. In addition, our
library contains nearly 13,000 books selected to support our district curriculum
as well as to offer the highest quality literature to our students.
Our LMC
has an open, flexible schedule which allows students and teachers access
to our resources throughout the school day. Classes, small groups, and
individuals find Madison #1 Library Media Center
a valuable tool for their school work as well as for pursuing personal
interests and hobbies.
Reading events throughout
the year include storytelling, visits from popular authors, and book fairs
which provide discounted or free books to students. Reading celebrations
such as Childrens Book Week, Poetry Month,
National Library Week and Teen Read Week promote the value and pleasure
of reading. Our Friends Of The Library program provides additional
resources to our media center through book donations by our parents and
community.
