Mission Statement

The Old Town High School Library’s mission is to create a library environment where students can successfully find information and ideas for their educational and recreational needs. The library provides access to resources, both physically and virtually, that support the curriculum and ensure that students become life-long learners and develop the information literacy skills necessary to be successful in the 21st century.

Annual Reports

Each year the library publishes an annual report highlighting the usage of all our resources, whether in the library or virtually. The school library plays a vital role in the education of students, providing the supplementary resources they need to succeed in school and in the 21st century.
