ONE OF A KIND FACILITY SERVING OUR LEARNING COMMUNITY
By David Di Gregorio
Introduction
Tenafly High School’s Lalor Library Media Center continues to set the standard in providing space and services enabling teachers to teach and students to learn. In order to best serve our students and staff, we prefer to remain in a perpetual state of improvement – to be original, striving be an innovative trend setter in the world of school library media centers.
The original architects designed our library to be a special place, and we wish to fully honor their intent. Building on the foundation of the traditional library, we look far beyond our national boarders for inspiration and ideas. Populated with the best resources and equipment – supported by the highest quality staff, we integrate all media in one centrally located complex. Shakespeare, television broadcast, Xeroxing, coffee, Mozart, tissues, Liszt, conferencing, live video production, post, and package video, paper clips, paper towels, streaming video, maps, BOOKS!, laptops, novels, a grand piano, a workshop, exhibits, displays, egg hatching, encyclopedias, movies, dictionaries, meeting facilities, art displays, tape, rulers, diorama production, and sometimes a model railway and Foucault Pendulum – are all under one roof – never static.
Over 1000 students and faculty use our services daily. Electronically, we reach out to many more via this website and a 24/7 television local cable broadcast also receivable with a click on the menu above. Every classroom and home in our community and beyond has electronic access into our facility providing a valuable school / community / world connection. We regularly receive school library media personnel, school administrators and even state officials as they are curious about our facility and want to see it in action. We welcome your visit anytime – tour and experience our unique facility!
