IHM School Media Center

Library Hours: Monday - Friday, 7:00 am - 5:00 pm

Welcome!  I’m Mrs. Sandy Wilson, the librarian of Immaculate Heart of Mary School’s Media Center.  I believe the Library Media Center is the focal point of our school through which integrated and multi-disciplinary learning takes place.  It provides many resources both print and non-print.  The Media Center is an extension of your child’s classroom where they can get information on many subjects or borrow interesting books to read.

I am blessed to have two wonderful part-time assistants (Mrs. Ileana Romero and Mrs. Ashleigh Hally) and many generous parents who volunteer their time in the media center.

Our fully automated media center is an open library with each class having a scheduled class time during the week.  Kindergarten through grade 5 visits the library for 1 hour while grades 6 through 8 have a 35-minute time slot.  The library program includes instruction in the use of library resources, library skills, including on-line research tools, appreciation of literature, book talks, library skills games, Accelerated Reader testing and actual practice in individual library/research skills.  In addition to a scheduled library class, Middle School students will also come to the library for a 35-minute Study Skills class.  These classes will include instruction on SSAT prep, note taking, test taking skills, etc.

The library is furnished with more than 32,000 books, periodicals, and audio-visual materials, with 16 computers for student use. The computers have access to Internet and several on-line research tools, including encyclopedia and magazine indexes.  In addition, the children have access to two printers and a scanner.

The Library Media Center also offers many programs to enhance your child’s reading skills, including Accelerated Reader and the Georgia Book Award Programs.  The library sponsors Battle of the Books, a Birthday Book Program, Book Fairs, Book Clubs, reading contests and programs, Family Reading Night, and a Summer Reading Program. 

We have a Spanish section which includes both books and video cassettes, as well as a Parent Corner with books geared towards spiritual enrichment as well as books on child rearing.

As you can see the Library Media Center has much to offer, so please come in whenever you wish, though please be respectful of classes that might be in session.  We do encourage parents to take advantage of our library collection and look forward to seeing you often.
