Our Lady of Mount Carmel School Library is located in the Jubilee wing of OLMC School. The
collection includes over 10,000 materials, including books, audio books (Playaways), magazines, and tech equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Circulation is approximately 400 to 500 items per week, and the catalog is managed using Destiny Library Manager software program. A student computer is available to access the library catalog. The library also features a SmartBoard and a Lego wall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Library skills are taught sequentially by the librarian and integrated into the curriculum through
collaboration with the classroom teacher. Students are free to come to the library outside their
regularly scheduled period: before school, during Resource, or at the teacher\u2019s discretion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

OLMC School Library adheres to the standards adopted by the American Library Association. The goal is to educate students to become information literate in a Christian Catholic setting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jubilee Book Club is available to honor a special event or person and benefit the library!
As a reading incentive, the library will promote Famous Readers. To become a famous reader,
a K-3 student (K-3) must read 30 books in one trimester (K-1 may be read to), a 4-5 student
must read 15, and a 6-8 student must read 10. To participate, a student should request a Book
