SFHS Library

The SFHS Library has been undergoing the process of "genrefication" since August 2022. Genrefying is "organizing a library by subject and genre, more like a bookstore, to enable students to find materials more easily and improve circulation" (Follett). We started the process by genrefying fiction novels last year, and this year we are working through nonfiction. Book checkouts have increased by 14% compared to this time last year, and we have received positive feedback from numerous students, faculty, and staff.

Book Club is about to meet for the second time this year! Last month we read The Naturals by Jennifer Lynn Barnes (an Oklahoma author), and we had great discussions about it at our first meeting of the year. We are currently reading Daughter of the Pirate King by Tricia Levenseller and are looking forward to a swashbuckling good time at the next meeting. Ahoy!

We are very appreciative of the support we receive from the community with our DonorsChoose projects. We are working to update our seating options, so check out our current project below if you would like to contribute.
