New (and Old) Resources in the Library

Learn about exciting updates to the Library’s resources, as well as existing resources to enrich student learning.
NEW IN THE LIBRARY!!!
 
We now have a schoolwide digital subscription to The New York Times. This subscription grants unlimited access to most articles, and can be accessed on campus from any computer, tablet, or phone.   
  • No registration or log in required; just visit NYTimes.com (for phone, use mobile.nytimes.com).
  • Note: this subscription is only available on school-owned devices.
 
We have also added print newspaper subscriptions of the New York Times and the San Francisco Chronicle.
  • Both newspapers are mounted centrally in the Library.
  • Come read a copy at recess, lunch, or after school!
