Boozhoo - HelloWETCC Library is located in the south wing in Room 202 - Wiigwass, the Ojibwe word for birch. Birch bark was the first material used by the Anishnaabe to make scrolls on which to record, and later retrieve, important information.
Fortunately, we no longer depend on birch bark scrolls in the library. Neither do we rely solely on bound paper books. (Don't worry, we still have plenty of books!) Besides books, our collection also includes audio and visual materials in several different formats, including CD and DVD, periodicals, and other learning resources. The WETCC Library provides access to a world of digital content via the internet and online databases, like those found in the right sidebar of this page. |
