New Way Academy Library

Do you want to know about robots, comic book heroes, or World War II? You'll find it all and much more in our library. New Way’s library and information technology center foster students’ love for reading and life-long learning.

Library resources are managed electronically through Follett Software Company, a recognized leader in K-12 library automation products and services. Our students benefit from a ratio of 60 books to every student, 11 magazine subscriptions, and an extensive audio book section.

The Simmy Ginsburg Research Center that is located in our library was donated by a New Way family. Computers in this center allow our students to conduct a simple but thorough search using keyword, author, title, or subject entries. Students can also access filtered Internet sites to expand their research.

Our librarian recommends these Internet sites:

www.glendaleaz.com/Library - They have a great Kid Zone and Teen Turnpike sections.

www.jsworldwide.com - Web page of Jon Scieszka, an author of great books for kids. This includes a link to his GUYS Read web site which suggests books for boys.

www.nationalgeographic.com/kids/ - This web site for National Geographic Kids is as great as their magazine.

www.factmonster.com - Lots of facts organized in a fun format.
