Print and electronic resources are provided and encompass vocational, personal,
and community interests. There is a positive and supportive atmosphere
where staff and students can read for pleasure, locate information for research,
or work collaboratively on school projects.

Library Advisory Board

The library belongs to everyone in the school community. In recognition and support of this philosophy, Penn Manor School District’s library department has created a Library Advisory Board. This board’s function is to provide a support base for district library services in the areas of:

· Troubleshooting immediate problems (e.g. book challenges)
· Establishing and refining policies (e.g. material selection)
· Evaluation of the library program
· Engaging in long-term problem solving and planning for major objectives and concerns

Meetings are held twice a year (once a semester) and beyond that on an as-needed basis. Standing board members include the district librarians, library coordinator, and director of technology. Other members such as a principal, parent, teacher and student rotate each year.

If you have questions or comments about the Library Advisory Board, please contact Ellen Griffis.
