RESOURCE CENTRES  
 
 
 

The Xavier College Resource Centres, on each of the three campuses, are an integral part of the teaching and learning community because they:

  • Provide a wide range of print and non-print resources relevant to the curriculum and recreational needs of the users.

  • Promote a reading culture which supports and enriches reading for pleasure and develops an appreciation of literature.

  • Promote information literacy, in collaboration with classroom teachers, across the curriculum, so ensuring that Xavier students are empowered to be lifelong independent learners and confident users of information.

 
 

The Resource Centres provide a welcoming, user-centred environment which is staffed by professional, qualified, efficient, skilled, enthusiastic, flexible and willing staff.

The three campus Xavier College Resource Centres staff will strive to ensure that the values of Jesuit education, the strong religious ethos of the College and our mission within the school are reflected in the positive relationship between the library staff, teachers, general staff, students, parents and the wider community.

The Resource Centre collections are designed to challenge and extend our students intellectually and to enable them to identify themselves as responsible citizens of a global community.
