Mrs. Ange, CHS Librarian, and Michelle Vecchiarello, CHS Library Monitor
Campbell High School’s mission is to join together with parents, students, staff and community to become a collaboration of learners born of character, courage, respect and responsibility. The CHS Library Media Center provides resources and services to support and advance the learning experience for students, faculty and staff. Our collections include a curriculum-based core of materials as well as materials for general reading. Print and AV materials can be located through the Spectrum online catalog. We subscribe to several online databases which provide students and staff with the ability to access a wealth of information resources beyond the library walls.
Destiny Catalog!
All library materials including books, periodicals and AV materials can be located through the Destiny catalog. The catalog is available on all school computers as a web address. Please see Mrs. Ange for the IP address.
