ASB iCommons
Reflecting the forward thinking leadership at our school and a deep desire to support 21st century learning and teaching model, the new Elementary School highlights a collaborative learning environment. In the new Elementary School campus we introduce to you ASB’s iCommons (Information Commons).

ASB iCommons’ mission is to inspire and support its users towards creative and intellectual achievement while responsibly and ethically learning the value of information, its acquisition, and its usage. The iCommons replaces the traditional concept of a library. We’ve transformed the centralized library into six interactive spaces within our learning communities. We call this area, the iCommons. Each floor has their iCommons housing a variety of resources - ebooks, playaways, audio books, printed books, and an iMac to create digital products. This collaborative space supports and engages students in their learning journey.


ASB iCommons Collection
Our six iCommons house a wide collection of ebooks, print books and databases to support reading, multidisciplinary social and problem solving skills. Within these titles is a wide collection of ebooks that range from picture books, fiction, nonfiction, graphic novels, other language materials and teacher resources. The iCommons subscribe to a variety of periodicals, journals, magazines, and  ebooks to support the needs of our students. The iCommons Handbook can be accessed for more information.
