The Library

The library strives to efficiently gather current information, categorize it in a well-organized manner, and distribute it effectively.  Additionally it attempts to support students and staff in daily educational activities and supply the necessary tools for individual academic development.

The library endeavors to support and encourage the students and staff to expand their reading activity by utilizing the resources provided on site.  It works to develop and strengthen the community spirit of Koç Elementary School.   The library is an essential tool in helping develop modern, forward thinking Turkish students who are prepared for the future as global minded students

There are two libraries on the school’s campus that provide the services needed to achieve these goals for students, faculty, and all other staff.

Our libraries have resources available in Turkish, English, German, French and Spanish.  Since 1993 we have had multi-media resources available and 2001 marked the beginning of the online database availability.  Every year we are adding new online databases and e-books.

We subscribe to Turkish, English, French, German, and Spanish magazines and we receive Turkish and English newspaper daily.

Teachers can bring their classes to the library to enhance their learning skills and opportunities.  Students come to the library during their break times to utilize the space and resources for their educational growth.

The librarians are always ready and willing to help all visitors who are unable to find what they need.

Welcome 

Welcome to the Koç Elementary and High School Libraries website.

Since the opening of the High School library in 1988 and the Elementary School library in 1998 we have been working to improve the services we provide to students in supporting their educational lives and have become an essential component of their academic progress. Our libraries are open approximately 12 hours a day, and we provide the latest library technologies to assist academic growth. We are happy becausee the library has become a preferred education place by the students. 

Many things have changed over the years, but ur goals have remained unchanged and guide the way for me and my colleagues:

Every day research technologies evolve and improve and we constantly work to catch these changes and convery them to our readers”.

Libraries are at the heart of school and education life and you can learn more about our services on this website.
