Welcome to the library! Here at GIS, we are proud to help students, teachers, and parents develop a life-long love of reading and a passion for research. Children in grades 3-5 will gain exposure to various genres and materials housed in the library. They will also be introduced to both print and on-line versions of reference sources for simple reports.

Each third, fourth, and fifth grade class spends one 40-minute period each week in the library, receiving instruction from the library media specialist (librarian) and the library aide. Additionally, numerous individual requests from students, teachers, and administration are fielded on a daily basis.

There are several highlighted clubs and events within the library program, including the Storytelling Club, National Children’s Book Week, Literacy Festival, Parents As Reading Partners (PARP), Summer Reading Program, and more!

For more detailed information, check out the GIS library web page “Book Ends,”  updated by Library Media Specialist Dorothy Szarowski!
