“Everyone is a reader… some just haven’t found their favorite book yet.”

Southaven Elementary Library Media Center's vision is to become a 21st Century environment that promotes learning in all students grades kindergarten through five by being a fun, safe, productive place to read, write, research, and create.

The mission of Southaven Elementary School Library Media Center is to provide our students and teachers with a text, resource, and technological rich learning environment that will spark creativity, foster a love of reading, promote research skills, and aid in implementation of the Mississippi College and Career Ready standards.
