Today's libraries are high-tech and full of activities for students beyond the books.
Whether you're searching for an engrossing biography, doing research for a project, looking for the latest issue of a favorite magazine, or seeking a quiet place to study, the school library fits the bill. Students of all ages are welcome in FCPS school libraries where school librarians contribute in rich and diverse ways to the intellectual life of a school, and to the development of students who can function in a complex and increasingly digital information environment.
Every school and center in FCPS has a library with professional staff, which has been proven to increase student reading and comprehension. Librarians work with teachers to enhance curriculum in all subjects, invite authors to speak to students in person and via Skype, and support students who are just learning to do research as well as those who are undertaking in-depth research projects.
FCPS libraries offer a range of services and resources for students in elementary, middle, and high schools. Librarians are happy to help FCPS students find books and information to support their classwork.
