Magnolia ISD Library Mission Statement

The mission of the Magnolia ISD Library Media Center is to provide an environment where lifelong habits of learning, self-improvement, and self-expression are encouraged and where patrons can meet their educational, informational, and recreational needs.

Through this process, we will help equip learners with skills to navigate an information-rich world. The Library responds to the needs of users by providing clean and inviting buildings, well-organized and up-to-date collections, friendly professional service, and well-trained staff.

The library is Room 1523 and is just to left of the front doors of the school once you enter Magnolia High School.

Students have a variety of options for using the library in addition to checking out books. We have Makerspace activities, games, puzzles, and a Lego center. We have areas for quiet and group study. We also have chromebooks that can be used in the library, a phone charging station, and additional electronic and digital resources.

Students may check out up to four books at a time for a period of three weeks. Students may renew their books for a longer period, if needed.
