Stanley students learning in the library
Library

Read. Wonder. Discover.

From choosing a favorite book to becoming an independent researcher, Stanley students grow as readers, thinkers and curious learners.

More Than Books

Building readers and researchers.

Stanley's library program nurtures a love of reading while helping students learn to find, understand and use information with increasing independence.

Through stories, research and classroom connections, students explore new perspectives, pursue their interests and build skills that support learning across the curriculum.

Assistant librarians
