Morgan International School Library is a centrally positioned facility which houses the school's main collection of printed resources to support curricular subjects and extra-curricular interests. All pupils in each of their first 4 years will enjoy one dedicated reading period per week, and supported and encouraged to foster a reading habit. Literacy will be promoted as a key foundation for all learning.
The librarian has organized and shelved a compilation of IBDP and IGCSE past examination questions, along with other resources, to enhance the school library's resources for program implementation. Again, the librarian leads periodic library orientations to help students understand information retrieval and literacy processes that support their academic work.
