St. John's-Ravenscourt Library Online PortaL

Welcome to the SJR LibrarY Online Portal. 

The SJR library is the center of literacy and research. We foster and celebrate the love of reading, and act as a learning and social hub for the whole school community. 

SJR's library team consists of Teacher-Librarians, Ms. Bartok and Mrs. Bergen, and Library Technician, Miss. Haklar.  We are always happy to help readers find what they need and frequently provide suggestions through physical and virtual displays, the Books of the Day on the library's Instagram account  and more. Students can also search the library catalog to find the right book, e-book or audiobook for them. 

The library is where you will find equipment, books, ebooks, magazines, games, and so much more! Come and explore.

We offer a range of digital resources to help students in school and at home. Students access them through our website, which includes resources to guide them in the effective use of databases, digital collections and other electronic subscriptions for their research and personal inquiry.
