YMS Library

Mission Statement

The mission of the Linda Shaw Masella Library is to create a safe and welcoming environment for our students where they may develop their reading identity, discover their passions, and increase their technological expertise. Together with the YMS community, we strive to help students become critical thinkers, effective communicators, efficient and ethical users and creators of information, and thoughtful digital citizens who are prepared to engage in a global society.
