About Our Library

The 6th through 8th grade Middle School years are a dynamic time for any student. Physically, intellectually and emotionally, these years are about change. We offer students a safe and secure small "family feel" in the midst of a large, vibrant and dynamic campus where students can learn, make friends, and get involved. West Middle School strives to meet the needs of the young adolescent for social interaction, achievement, structure, meaningful participation in groups and physical activity.

Our library has a multitude of books, reference materials, magazines, and videos. Online searching is available on fifteen in-house student computers. We currently have access to high-quality databases which include Encyclopedia Britannica Online, EBSCO, Gale, Career Cruising, Britannica American West, American Indian Histories & Culture, Spanish Reference Center, Britannica Global Reference Center, Encyclopedia Juvenil and two sources for digital books: Follett Shelf and Overdrive.
