Welcome to the Media Center

Our school media center is a hub for knowledge, curious minds, and adventure! It’s like a treasure chest overflowing with books and resources which align with the curriculum, and guides students' on their learning quests. Our Titans can discover innovative ideas, explore diverse perspectives, and sharpen their reading skills! The Makerspace is the ultimate location for creativity and team-building. Our goal is to help students to prepare for a continuously evolving world.

Follett Destiny Discover

The Elkins Pointe Media Center utilizes Follett’s Destiny Library Manager to manage our library collection. Both students and teachers can explore our book collection through Destiny Discover, a visually engaging circulation software that enables them to search for both print and digital materials available in our media center. Whether it's for leisure reading, entertainment, or resources to support homework and lesson planning, Destiny Discover is here to assist them in finding exactly what they need.

Destiny Discover can be accessed by students through Classlink. Look for Destiny Discover on the e-Library tab.
