Welcome to the Taylor Middle School 

Library Media Center

We are looking forward to a new and exciting year!

Keep posted to find out more about Library activities throughout the year! 

 

 


English and Reading Teachers will schedule time in the Library regularly. Our goal is to have a reading book in each students' hands at all times. Encourage reading at home by reading with your child and allowing them to see you enjoy reading too! 

Subject Teachers will schedule research periods for students which support class reports and projects.

Students may visit the Library from 7:15 to 7:55 am during Homeroom Monday through Friday. The Library is available for quiet study, group project work and use of computers. Printing privileges will be permitted within limits.
