Students visit the library on a weekly basis to take out and return books as well as to learn about information literacy. A favourite part of class visits to the library are read-aloud story sessions. Older students begin to develop and enhance their critical reading and research skills in preparation for their PYP exhibition at the end of grade 5.

The middle school/high school library is located in building C and used by students from grades 6 to 12. The library is open twice a week after school for students to borrow and return books. Both libraries offer a range of age-appropriate materials.
