Learning That Extends Far Beyond the Classroom

The Library and Resource Center serves as a space to study, explore, and grow with confidence, actively supporting each student in becoming a self-directed reader and competent user of information. Our Resource Center staff collaborates with Mercy's faculty, provides class and one-on-one instruction in research, and offers friendly help in exploring the library's books, magazines, and electronic resources, and in thoughtful use of the Internet.

 

Whether discovering a new book, experimenting in the Tinkering Lab, or collaborating through the Peer Tutoring Program, Mercy students are surrounded by the resources, encouragement, and community they need to reach their full potential.

Hours

  • Monday - Thursday 7:30 a.m. - 5:00 p.m
  • Friday 7:30 a.m. - 4:00 p.m. 

Please note, if a change in library hours is made it will be announced to the students via Schoology. The schedule for special activities and events will also be posted to Schoology. Please contact Ms. Johnson with any questions.

Tinker Space

The Tinkering Lab is a space where creativity comes to life and ideas take shape. From 3D printing, robotics and electronics to sewing, crafting, and beading, students have the tools and freedom to design, build, and explore. It’s a place to bring their curiosity and imagination into action. 

Peer Tutoring Program

The Peer Tutoring Program provides student-led academic support while fostering a culture of collaboration, leadership, and empowerment. Teachers help to pair students together so those students who are thriving in certain courses can share their knowledge and support their sisters who need extra help in certain academic areas.
