School Library Partnerships

In our work with school libraries we:    

  • Fund and manage the Integrated Library System and Follett Destiny (a digital catalog), in 15 elementary and 4 high schools throughout Philadelphia. Browse the collection at some of our partner schools.
  • Revitalize collections with new, high quality, and culturally responsive books.
  • Work with the West Philadelphia Alliance for Children (WePAC), which has been working since 2008 to open and staff elementary school libraries in Philadelphia.
  • Develop and provide training materials and resources for a collaborative approach to using the Follett Destiny system and maintaining library spaces.
