Thank you for visiting the St. Gabriel's Catholic School Library's website.

 

The Mission of the St. Gabriel's Catholic School Library is  to encourage students to become self-directed lifelong learners and active, independent, effective users of information and literature. A diverse collection of both print and non-print materials are maintained to support the curriculum, interests, and needs of the St. Gabriel’s community.

 

Our librarian, Ms. Snyder, maintains a library collection of over 14,000 books, multimedia items such as e-books, audio-books, CDs, and DVDs, as well as subscriptions to learning resources, online journals, databases and periodicals.  Each week students from kindergarten through third grade visit the library for storytime, information literacy skill development, and to check out books. Flexible scheduling is available throughout the school day for 4th-8th grade students for research support.
