The library is a quiet space in the school for students to explore and discover new areas of knowledge. There is a substantial collection of fiction and non-fiction books, reference materials, magazines, journals, and comic books (BDs) in French, English and other languages. Students may browse the collection, read, and do research for school projects or independent study courses. Due to space limitations and noise concerns, the library is reserved for quiet work. Students must have a purpose in mind when they come to use the library: research, personal study, or reading. You should use other areas of the school for work that requires discussion.
