Pictured: Head of School Sally Powell joins librarians and technology faculty in celebrating the dedication of the Anne Frank Library.

The Schoolhouse Library was renamed in 2011 as the Anne Frank Library, named in honor of the historical figure and the Baldwin family who anonymously made a $1 million commitment to the school.
 
This library serves as a central intellectual force within the school by:
  • teaching all students to be independent, resourceful, critical and effective users of information available in various media / formats, through a library media skills program that is integrated into the school's curriculum;
  • instilling the knowledge that libraries are essential to life-long learning;
  • encouraging the love of reading, providing carefully selected resources in multiple formats to meet the academics, personal information, and recreational needs of the school community;                       
  • educating all members of the school community on copyright regulations and fair use of intellectual property in all formats;
  • providing the school community with resources beyond our own, through cooperative resource sharing;
  • utilizing electronic resources as tools for information retrieval and use;
  • promoting interdisciplinary collaboration and the integration of information technology and the curriculum; and
  • being a center for information services as well as creative ideas, programs, and activities 
The Anne Frank Library is open and staffed Monday through Friday, 7:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., with extended hours for Grades VI-XII until 6 p.m. Monday through Thursday. 
"In the long run, the sharpest weapon of all is a kind and gentle spirit."
      -Anne Frank
