My Project

OHS's library has been closed for 15 years, and we are in the process of opening it up for student use. We want to expand our collection to include magazines for students to explore for research purposes, or to explore their interests in their free time.

We want to establish a culture of reading with our youth, and it will take many different avenues to achieve this.

Magazines are a way for students to explore shorter readings of things that interest them. Teachers can also access to pull articles that connect with the content of their classes.
