It's Banned Books Week!

Every year, libraries get thousands of challenges to books in their collections.  Librarians fight for the freedom to read for all people by advocating to keep books on the shelves.  Support banned books week by reading a banned book!


 Check out the display on the "brown hallway" side of the library for more information.

Summer is approaching...

Just because the STRHS Library is closed for the summer, it doesn't mean you don't have great resources at your fingertips.  All the databases in the library are available 24/7 over the summer.  And don't forget the public library!  There are some great programs for all ages including wool and water color painting, a Chinese cooking class, and a program on rescued rain forest animals. See the Southwick public library website for more information:
