Library Media Center
Books are the quietest and most constant of friends; they are the most accessible and wisest of counselors, and the most patient of teachers.
Charles W. Eliot (1834 - 1926)
The Happy Life, 1896
The MCHS Library Media Center (LMC) of today is NOT just about BOOKS anymore! It’s about EMPOWERING students to be masters of their own learning.
Yesterday's libraries were all about books. Today's libraries are all about readers.
Yesterday's libraries were all about getting information. Today's libraries are all about creating and sharing information.
Yesterday's libraries were all about silent individuals. Today's libraries are all about active groups.
Yesterday's libraries were all about term papers. Today's libraries are all about multimedia hands-on collaborative projects.
The MCHS LMC embraces the concepts of today’s library!
