Overview
The NAI School Library provides students and staff access to over 15,000 items. A variety of subscription databases such as the Biography Resource Center, Congressional Quarterly, Culturegrams, Noodle Tools Online Citation , Opposing Viewpoints, Student Resource Center, and World News Digest are available through our computer search stations. These resources are also available for use at home by clicking on Online Resources at Home. The library catalog, Destiny, is available online at school and at home.
The library media specialist provides access to and instruction in the use of a variety of information sources, as information literacy and technology objectives are totally integrated with curricular objectives from various disciplines. This is accomplished through collaboration and planning between the librarian and curricular area teachers. The library flexibly schedules classes as requested and accommodates large numbers of study hall students pursuing independent work each period. As students participate in these learning activities, they discover the wide applicability of information literacy and technology skills to all areas of study and develop the independent skills necessary to function successfully in today's information-rich world. The NAI library is staffed by a full-time certified library media specialist as well as a library secretary.
