PCHS Library Learning Commons
Welcome to the PCHS Library Learning Commons
(LLC)!
Our LLC’s mission is to instill a love of reading, foster
literacy, and support life-long learning and our school’s
curriculum. We offer students and staff alike a large, welcoming
space, able to house over 175 people at a time, with modular, as
well as comfortable seating. Our LLC is an inclusive, safe
space, where our students are free to study, work on projects,
research, read, or unwind in-between classes. Teachers and other
staff members can book the library for the use of its space
during and after school, for various events, guest speakers, or
for a change of scenery for coursework. During school hours, we
offer instruction on research skills, library orientation for
new users, readers advisory, and reference services.
Our collection houses over 18,000 books in French, English, and
Spanish, including popular and recent YA fiction, nonfiction,
graphic novels, manga, and more. We also offer free access to an
additional large collection of eBooks on Sora and Biblius, and
other research databases. Desktop computers and a colour printer
and photocopier are available for use, as well as a variety of
board games, colouring pages, and makerspace materials. We also
offer a variety of free activities throughout the year, such as
Battle of the Books, book art workshops, paint chip poetry, and
more.
