Libraries
The three division-level libraries at Gill are hubs for inquiry, research, and collaboration.
Our librarians work closely with content-area teachers to reinforce information literacy and digital literacy. In addition, Gill librarians teach advanced and innovative research techniques, and all our students annually complete significant, grade-appropriate, research projects. Finally, our libraries are great places to play a game of chess, color with friends, work on a puzzle, or simply find and read a good book.
Lower School
Our youngest learners develop foundational, age-appropriate, research skills through project-based and thematic units on engaging topics, including fairy tales, the four seasons, habitats and cultural settings. Each year culminates in a cross-curricular animal research project that is shared during the annual Biome museum.
Middle School
Students expand their use of the library and their research skills in the Merke Learning Commons, a blend of books, online resources and tools for project-based learning. The library shares a door with the Makerspace, which supports classroom assignments and projects. Students can visit the library during Conference period or break to find a new book or work collaboratively on their homework.
Upper School
The Upper School library provides resources to support academic coursework and independent research. Our librarians are on hand to offer research assistance, help students find online materials, or simply recommend a good book. As part of the academic curriculum, all students complete several meaniful research projects. They share the knowledge they gain as papers, presentations, games, debates, and more.
