MISSON: The Susan M. Gibbons Media Learning Center strives to provide consistent and continuous access to quality research and reading materials, while teaching and modeling critical and ethical use of information in all formats. The library, as the intellectual hub of the school, exists to further the mission of Seton High School in educating young women for the future.
HOURS: The Media Learning Center is open from 7 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. each school day. Arrangements may be made in advance for additional time after school. Students may use the Media Learning Center during their lunch periods.
DATABASE PASSWORDS: You can find the passwords to the Seton Library databases on the library page on
Edline.
BOOKS: Books circulate for two weeks and may be renewed. Students may check their Media Leanring Center accounts online for dates due, books being held for them, etc.
REFERENCE: General reference works circulate for one night only. Web-based reference sources can be accessed at school and at home. Passwords are available on Edline under the Media Leaning Center Group or from the librarian.
OVERDUE & RENEWAL: Returning books on time is the responsibility of the student, regardless of whether she receives a notice. Due dates can be requested from the librarian, or looked up online. Notices are normally emailed each Monday morning. Students may request renewals without having the books in hand.
COMING TO THE MEDIA LEARNING CENTER DURING THE SCHOOL DAY: Students are welcome during the school day with a pass from their classroom teacher. Students assigned to study hall may sign out to come to the library as space permits. Classes being conducted in the library must take precedence over individual drop-in students, but generally no one will be turned away if she has a legitimate need for library resources.
