The Learning Commons

Welcome back to a new school year. Over the summer, the library and lab have been transformed into the new Learning Commons. We are still undergoing renovations, but soon the students of Sheridan Park will have a chance to sign books out or work on assignments before, during or after school.
Patience is asked by all!

what's up?

Well, the month of May is upon us. The Sheridan Park Library has seen a few changes over the course of the previous few weeks. The BIG change was the implementation of Destiny. This is a great resource for all students and teachers here at SP. There is still a steep learning curve ahead but slowly and surely, we will all be used to this wonderful system. Our Library also has some new furniture. Thanks to the SP Parent Council for the lovely chairs. They are used daily by our students and enjoyed by all. Finally, we continue to purchase books here at SP. New titles are being processed such as the latest 39 Clues book.

Our Library will be undergoing major renovations over the summer. And so, I will be asking for all Library materials to be returned by June 1, 2009. At this point, Library materials will no longer be available for circulation. The change will be worth it!

Keep on reading...

Destiny Has Arrived

Our new library search tool has arrived. Over the course of the next few months, our Sheridan Park students will become familiar with this programme. The neat thing is that you can access this from any computer at any time. Destiny is web based. My suggestion is that you book mark the site and use it often.
Enjoy
