WELCOME to Del Mar's Library Information Media Center
Read, research, explore, investigate, study, record, listen, view, collaborate, relax, and more.

 
You are welcome to visit the Library every day!
  • The library is open before school, during all breaks, and after the first 12 minutes of the lunch period.

  • Come to the library to read -- of course -- but also ask questions, print, research, collaborate with classmates, get some quick research or tech help, complete homework, recharge your iPad, consult textbooks and other reference material, or just find a place to think. 

Need assistance?  Just ask! Mr. Sonneville (rsonneville@reedschools.org) and the library crew are here to help!
