Kemper Library: Willis Hall

Welcome to our library!

Our students in upper school may come to the library whenever they have an opportunity, as well as with classes in different subject areas. Students spend time reading, working on classwork, using computers, and seeking assistance with research. Upper school students also may eat lunch in the library if they wish.  Research skills are continually practiced as classes in different subject areas come to the library to work on projects or work in collaboration with the librarian to find resources.

Kemper Library has a large collection of print materials and a number of excellent online resources. A smart TV, two mounted screens for use with a laptop and/or DVD player, and 20 computers provide many resources for classes, student groups, and meetings.
