American Library Association.
Our Mission Statement For ALJ Library
“Our library is committed to providing quality print and electronic resources while fostering information literacy skills through effective research and retrieval as well as developing a lifelong love of reading.”
Amelia Love Johnson Library Media Center provides open access for all students. The Library Media Center uses Surpass as its automated management system.
Teachers may send students to the LMC at any time during the school day to check out books. Research time is arranged for all students. Because collaborative planning between the classroom teacher and the Library Media Specialist is important to the learning process for all students, the Library Media Center is an extension of the classroom. Through collaborative planning, students have the chance to experience knowledge through varied learning opportunities. Students and teachers have access to the Alabama Virtual Library for projects and research.
Books are checked out for 7 days for k-6th and 2 weeks for high school (or other arrangements made with the staff). No books will be checked out to students who have overdue books.
