Description

Libraries have come a long way since the Dewey Decimal System, and the EMSB has not only kept up with the times in transforming their libraries, but is forging ahead to be sure all students needs are met for reading, studying and yes, playing games. Turns out the new libraries are where students talk to each other, discuss and collaborate on projects and share ideas.

Julia Stark, Librarian at Lauren Hill Senior has lived the transformation earning her Masters of Library & Information Science from McGill in 2005. Julia guides us through the changes. Students Auriane Gaffney, Sec 5 Laurier MacDonald, Rachel MacPhee, Gr 5 Willingdon Senior Campus and Seri Dudley, Gr 6 Nesbitt Elementary share their passion for reading and how they are using the New EMSB Libraries as their Space To Explore digitally as well as on paper.
