Our Mission Statement:
The goal of the SBHS Library Media Center is to help South
Brunswick students become information literate. In cooperation with the faculty,
students learn to access, analyze, and use ideas and information with confidence
and competence. To assure that students can achieve this goal, the library
provides access to technology, as well as traditional learning tools. Students
are afforded multiple opportunities to develop these necessary competencies,
to "learn in order to know" as well as "learn in order to do." (SCANS)
