    The mission of the McMillen Library is to ensure that all of our students are effective users of multiple literacies, including information, digital, visual, textual, and technological.

    This mission is accomplished by...

    • Supporting the reading needs and interests of our students as it is a lifelong learning skill that is a key indicator of success in school and in life;

    • Focusing on students' transliteracy skills when it comes to their "ability to read, write and interact across a range of platforms, tools and media from signing and orality through handwriting, print, TV, radio and film, to digital social networks" (www.transliteracy.com)
