School Library
Library Website (http://library.asmilan.org/)
ASM's spacious library contains more than 23,000 volumes in English, Italian, French, and Spanish. The librarian is available throughout the school day to assist students in finding suitable materials for their classes, to identify materials needed by teachers within their classes, and to offer instruction on how to access the library catalogue and our on-line resources.
The library also serves as a study hall for individuals and groups and is used for presentations, exhibits and other school gatherings. Students, staff, and families have access to the library during the entire school day. In addition to print resources, the library subscribes to: - Ebsco Databases for research in Science, History, Literature, current issues and many other subjects related to ASM’s curriculum.
Teachers also have access to professional development resources; and - WebPath Express, a service through the online catalog that links to pre-selected websites related to each subject and by grade level; and, - to two daily newspapers, The International Herald Tribune and Corriere della Sera, and a wide variety of weekly and monthly periodicals for students and our community at large. The ASM library catalog and the Ebsco databases are available at school and from home. We encourage students to frequently check for new arrivals and welcome parents into our library to take advantage of our comfortable and well-equipped library.
