Welcome To The Media Center

The school media center serves as a hub for information, learning, and exploration. It provides resources that support the curriculum and enhance students' educational experiences. The media center is a place where students can discover new ideas, explore different perspectives, and develop critical thinking skills. It also serves as a space for collaboration, research, and creativity, supporting students in their academic pursuits and preparing them for success in a rapidly changing world.

Ms. Porter, Woodland's School Librarian, is committed to making the school library a welcoming and accessible space for all students. Her mission is to provide a rich collection of digital and print resources that support academic growth and foster a love of learning. By creating an environment that encourages exploration, creativity, and authentic learning experiences, Ms. Porter aims to inspire students to become lifelong learners.

Follett Destiny Discover

The Media Center uses Follett’s Destiny Library Manager to maintain our library collection. Patrons access the collection using Destiny Discover, a graphics-based circulation software that allows them to search for print and digital content available in their school’s media center.
