Pre and Lower School Library

Students in Preschool through 2nd grade visit the PS/LS library on a weekly basis for literature-enriched experiences that focus on the joy of reading and the selection and use of books for research and pleasure. In the library, students not only listen to stories read aloud, they actively participate in storytelling, bookmaking, puppet making and dramatizations in connection to the literature, social studies, or science curriculum. Students also learn how to conduct and evaluate research in both print and online formats, including encyclopedias, atlases, dictionaries, and research databases. They are provided with guided instruction in the use of the Internet, both in formal small groups and during independent study.

The PS/LS Library is located on the 6th Floor of the Pearl Street Building at BFS. The collection includes approximately 12,000 books, periodicals, videos, and audiobooks.
