Library's Mission Statement:
The mission of the Carson Complex School Library is to:

Promote the joy of reading and nurture the development of independent learning where students foster the skills needed to access, use, and evaluate information effectively to become responsible, and productive life-long learners.

Collaborate with subject specialists and teachers to design inquiry research based lessons so that students can develop meaningful projects that are embedded into multiple curricular areas.

Serve as the information hub of the school by providing quality rich materials in multiple formats (print, audiovisual, video, digital, etc.) that support and enrich the school's curriculum.

Library's Vision Statement:
Our vision is to nurture an educated, enlightened and enriched diverse community by providing a safe and comfortable space for students, teachers, and the community to effectively use information and ideas for learning social responsibility, personal growth, and global awareness.
