“A library is a good place to go when you feel unhappy, for there, in a book, you may find encouragement and comfort. A library is a good place to go when you feel bewildered or undecided, for there, in a book, you may have your question answered. Books are good company, in sad times and happy times, for books are people—people who have managed to stay alive by hiding between the covers of a book.”

Middle School Librarian
"In my position as a middle school librarian, I believe that libraries are important places for lifelong exploration and discovery. It is the power of reading that expands our minds and ignites our imaginations. At the heart of ISB Middle and High School, the ISB Main Library hosts research sessions, book talks, displays, presentations, and a multitude of events. We also offer a wide range of updated resources, including eBooks, AudioBooks, and a variety of equipment, including digital cameras and a 3D printer."
Librarian and Technology Coordinator, and EE Coordinator
"The Main Library at ISB is hive of energy and information. Primarily we serve the Middle and High Schools, yet we enjoy hosting art displays, presentations, film studies and classes. It is one of the busiest places on campus. We are constantly on the hunt of the best of the most recently published titles. In addition to the best books, we also offer access to amazing technology for checkout like cameras, microphones, lights, a computer lab and Virtual Reality headsets. We are proud to provide the services and resources to the ISB Community".
“A room without books is like a body without a soul.”
