​The number of Library Learning Commons Certified schools continues to grow!

March 2019
Frey Elementary School


“It is wonderful to see administration and media personnel on the same page and watch them work together to provide the best possible "world" for students. It is obvious that Frey Elementary benefits from such a combination. Ashley has developed a learning commons that reaches the entire school, and students experience success because of her efforts.”

Learning Commons Philosophy

Learning Commons Furniture

Mobile, flexible furniture is the hallmark of our learning commons. Colorful, interesting spaces inspire students to learn, think, and collaborate; mobile devices and plenty of power keep them engaged and learning. Makerspaces encourage our innovators to think big.  
​Check out this video from several learning commons grand openings in January 2015.
Take a virtual tour of Big Shanty Intermediate's Makerspace. Learn about their approach to innovation.
