Philosophy

The Browning Library supports the school curriculum and provides access to information, technology and literature for all students. To support work on projects, Middle School teachers may arrange classroom visits to the library. The teachers and librarians collaborate to introduce the boys to specific print and electronic resources to assist their research. Boys are also encouraged to visit the library on their own time to study, explore resources, and check out books.

The Library houses over 11,000 print volumes, approximately 70 periodicals, 14 subscription databases indexing hundreds of publications, and a growing collection of DVDs. Beginning in Grade Five, students are permitted to check out Netbooks fromthe library on an hourly, daily, or overnight basis.
