WELCOME TO THE ACDS LIBRARY!
Our Mission is to Challenge students intellectually; inspire their confidence, curiosity, and creativity; and prepare them to thrive in a diverse and complex world by ensuring that they are independent learners.
At ACDS, students learn to gather and manage information skillfully. That starts in our Library, which aims to facilitate access to information relevant to the coursework and our community's academic interests.
The research skills students develop in the library equip them to lead well-informed, thoughtful and productive lives. The Library offers a wide variety of print and electronic resources, connections to outside libraries and book recommendations.
