Our goal is to prepare lifelong learners and information literate citizens, who are able to determine their information needs, recognize relevant information, solve problems, and effectively communicate the results of their research. We strive to create a comfortable and welcoming working environment for the school community. Staff Ms. Beth Cohen, Librarian Hours The Strath Haven Library is open each school day from 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. Procedures Students may come to the library with a white pass signed by a subject teacher. During 3rd Block, students can use a white pass, or check out a laminated Lunch Pass before school to come during their lunch period. The number of available Lunch Passes depends on the number of classes scheduled to use the library during 3rd Block. Upon entering the library, students should put their white pass in the basket and LEGIBLY sign the attendance sheet on the checkout desk. Doing so assists the staff in helping the students as well as keeping attendance statistics. Students with laminated passes should give their pass to a staff member and initial the daily attendance sheet. Students are expected to push in chairs and leave the library in a clean condition, especially before and after school. No food, beverages,
