We have updated our current library catalog to a new and improved system called Destiny. Destiny has tons of fantastic features for our students, including:

• Book covers shown in search results (like on Amazon.com)
• Related web searching, sites grouped according to grade level (when you search for a topic, the catalog will not only find our books, but also age-appropriate websites)
