Welcome to the Media Center
Orange County Public Schools' library media programs are the hub of our schools and provide equitable access to resources that engage students in learning. Through promoting reading appreciation, teaching digital and information literacy skills, facilitating inquiry through both independent and collaborative learning, library media programs contribute to ensuring that every student has a promising and successful future.
BOOK ORDERS
Below are books that I want to order for the Media Center. I have looked at reviews for each book to ensure that they are allowed by law. Most reviews were from Follet, Kirkus, Common Sense Media, or Booklist. Email the Media Specialist if you have questions or concerns: [email protected]
This is the list of the 2025-2026 Florida Teens Read Books, as well as other titles. Please let me know if you have concerns.
