Welcome Back, NCS! We at the library are thrilled to see everyone back on campus and look forward to hearing about your summer adventures when you stop by to see us! We are also excited to share the recent expansions to our library services to kick off the fall term. In addition to our usual plethora of fresh books, we have a few other new additions to the library space.
Firstly, Mr. Lucas' office has been transformed into our new Digital Media Production Lab. This lab now contains 8 new Mac computers, each equipped with Final Cut, Adobe Photo Shop, and other related software. There is also a new green screen wall, a range of new camera equipment, and a color scanner for student and faculty use. This lab and its equipment will be available for faculty, staff, and student use during regular library hours, including after school. The space will provide students (or faculty and staff) with a consistently available work area for projects related to the manipulation, creation, and production of digital media (such as films, video or multimedia presentations, etc.).
Secondly, we've purchased a set of 20 iPod Touches to be used as video cameras, digital cameras, and audio recorders. The iPods will be available for student checkout or for faculty checkout as a set for classroom lessons or projects. We also have a few iPads that can be checked out for in library use for students during the school day.
As usual the library is open every week day from 7:30am to 5:00pm. Stop by and check out our fresh supply of books, our exciting new equipment, and our September display highlighting excellent online sources for homework help!
