Jordanian International Schools Library
Jordanian International Schools (JIS) believe in the importance of reading and writing in developing students' minds and expanding their horizons to the world. For this reason, JIS has established two well-equipped libraries, one in the National section and the other in the International section.
The school libraries feature a wide and exciting collection of literary, historical, technical, and reference works in Arabic, English, and French. The library collection, selected to support both curricular and recreational aspects, includes over nine thousand books, DVDs, CDs, electronic books, as well as a large audiovisual collection covering various subjects and academic levels. In one section of the library, there are computer stations for electronic research, and a round hall with tables and comfortable places for students to encourage reading and studying, providing a quiet study atmosphere and fostering a love for books and literature.
Library staff provides assistance to students in finding the books and information they need. The libraries also organize various activities to encourage students to read, such as the Jordanian International Schools Morning Reading Club, reading competitions, storytelling hours, and meetings with authors.
JIS believes that reading is the key to lifelong learning, and libraries play a crucial role in cultivating students' love for reading.
