Our Library's Mission

 

The mission of the J. F. Kennedy Media Library Media Program is to ensure that all students and staff have the skills and opportunity to access, evaluate, and use information. The Library Media Specialists play a critical role in the introduction of new learning technologies, support the curriculum and the teaching of information skills in a positive learning environment in which all students can become independent, lifelong learners.

We believe that it is important for the Library Media Program to maintain its traditional role of preserving and disseminating information while incorporating advances in technology for information access. Our goal is to help students become productive citizens and participants in a rapidly changing society.

~Glen Martinez, Library Media Teacher
