The DeConcini Library as you know it, is disappearing April 17th.
We will reopen in a limited capacity within a week, in our new temporary
location, the Hall of Fame. It is a relatively small space so we won't be
bringing books with us. Until the end of this school year we will have to
make do with our eighteen laptops and four Chromebooks. The Study Hall function
of the library will still be offered from 3:30 until 5:00 in the computer lab.
We will meet student needs with eBooks and
databases. Next fall we will have a class set of laptops and are
considering a class set of Chromebooks. All of our computer furniture
will move to Hall of Fame, but the desktops will go in to classrooms.
Hall of Fame is used by much of the campus and community in the off-school
hours so the technology needs to be secured against loss. The laptops
have a locking cabinet making them safer to store in a remote location.
The library will have a grand opening in December of 2014 in its
new location as part of the Student Center next to the Chapel and
cafeteria. In our old location they will
be creating a S.T.E.M. center and new classrooms to replace our two
smallest Science classrooms.
