The Bardstown High School Library is Guided by Five Goals
We achieve this by providing a range of materials, both print and non-print that students can access both in person and online. Emphasis is placed on selecting credible sources and on identifying bias which affects the validity of some information. Support is provided on synthesizing information to present in various Google Apps formats.
eBooks and audiobooks are available via the BHS Library website, as well as access to the Kentucky Virtual Library.
Classes come to the library regularly to check out books as well as for nonfiction books that support classroom assignments.
New books are added monthly to the library collection that are designed to appeal to our diverse student population.
The Atriuum online card catalog can be accessed from the BHS Virtual Library or directly at https://bardstownk12.booksys.net/opac/bhs/index.html#menuHome.
The Library serves as the student hub for Chromebook distribution and student support. The Library website provides a portal of Chromebook support that is available to students.
The BHS Library provides resources to all students, both in-person and remote. The collection is updated to reflect the mission and long-range vision of the school.
