Library
Welcome to our Library – an inviting and busy place on our campus!
The ICS Library is considered a community resource and is open to all students, faculty and staff daily. Families are welcome to come and use the library before and after the regular school day or to pop in for check-out-only during the school day. By providing access to dynamic collections, effective tools, and flexible learning spaces, both physical and virtual, we aim to enrich, educate and empower all community members.
The goals of our instructional program include instilling a love of reading and fostering information literacy skills. The Library also sponsors a number of special events during the school year including author visits, reading incentive programs, Nile Book Award, Children's Book Week celebrations, Teen Read Week, Poetry Month, and Book Clubs.
The library offers a great selection of print and digital materials that are updated annually. All resources can be accessed through our online catalog at HERE.
