Library Services

 

The New York City School Library System is part of a state-aided program sponsored by each BOCES or 'Big 5' city school district. Members of this program provide vital library and information resources to public and nonpublic schools throughout the State.

Our Vision 

The school library fosters a community of learning and literacy that leads to high academic achievement, independent reading and learning, and collaboration throughout the school.

Program Planning

The Office of Library Services has developed several documents to assist your school in developing an exemplary library program.
