Library
The Library is an integral part of the school community at Lamoille Union High School and Middle School. We encourage students and faculty to explore and investigate for personal pleasure, class research, and for professional development. The Library offers a quiet, welcoming environment where all patrons can work productively.
Resources
The Library maintains a well-developed collection of over 16,000 books tailored to the high school and middle school curricula. Twelve networked computers access the Internet, and OPAC, the automated catalog. A computer lab adjoining the Library has twenty computers that are scheduled for class use.
