Library

Our beautiful new K-12 library space ensures that all members of the school community have access to books. We believe that those things with covers and paper inside are as relevant as ever, and can be utilized hand-in-hand with the extraordinary technological opportunities that our school also proudly offers.

LOWER SCHOOL
In addition to honing practical library skills and primary research methods, lower school students will participate in activities such as story times, reader’s theater, and hands-on lessons that support their classroom curriculum. Our cubs in the preschool will meet in the library monthly for stories, songs, and mini-lessons centered on basic elements of a story, library etiquette, and fostering a love of reading.
 
UPPER SCHOOL
The library provides an inviting atmosphere for students to study and work individually and cooperatively.  Students may research using the library’s various resources including a growing collection of novels, periodicals, and reference books, in addition to their personal school-issued laptops. Ms. Jennifer Nails is readily available for questions and research assistance. She welcomes students to utilize the library catalog, as well as speak with her about technology, media and their academic needs.

The Adelson Campus is also a member of PJ Library, a national book program implemented locally by the Jewish Federation of Las Vegas. PJ Library mails FREE, high-quality Jewish children's books and music to families on a monthly basis. Families are able to explore the timeless core values of Judaism through the art and literature of these free children's books. All families raising Jewish children from age six months through eight years, are welcome to enroll by visiting the PJ Library website.
