The School Library Media Center, located at 105 Half Hollow Road, Deer Park, New York, provides the resources and services whereby students can become effective users of ideas and information and lifelong seekers of knowledge capable of information retrieval.

The Media Center fosters the lifelong enjoyment of reading providing access to quality age-appropriate literature.  The Media Center also provides curriculum support, research guidance, and other learning experiences to the students, faculty, staff, and parents of the school community.

Special Thanks to Anna Stokes for providing the content for this portion of the SSCM website!

Our 10,000 multi-media resources are easily searched and circulated by our automated system and networked to all classrooms.  Magazine articles are easily accessed through our on-line databases.  Student workstations have full internet access and word processing programs.

The Library staff looks forward to working with each student during class visits or independent research periods.  Parents are welcome to circulate our resources and browse our Parent Resource Collection either before or after school.
