​​Learning Commons at the CBE

Today’s learners cannot imagine life without the internet and supporting technology. The concept of the traditional library is changing to include technology, online tools and spaces for collaboration and exploration.​​​

Our Learning Commons

Students wishing to use the library must be under the supervision of a teacher. Books may be signed out for a two-week loan period. Students with overdue books may not sign out additional books until the late books are returned or paid for if the book has been lost.
