Welcome
to Rosny College Library
Our
goal is to teach students the essential skills for information literacy so
that they may access, critically evaluate and use ideas and information.
It is our mission to provide access to relevant up-to-date resources for
our college community and to foster a positive attitude to learning and
libraries. We value life-long learning skills and encourage literacy
through reading.
Rosny
College's well-established library provides access to relevant up-to-date
resources for our College community supported by helpful and professional
staff. The library provides a quiet and friendly working atmosphere for
students to study individually and with their classes.
