Curie has a media center with outdated books and technology. I wouldn't even consider it a media center as a matter-of-fact, I think the only purpose it serves is it gives students a chance to print out documents. The books are old, outdated, and unused because no one bothers to check them out. The goal of my project it to change that. I want to make our media center an actual media center with up to date books and technology. The plan is for students to find use to the new technology, books, and for Curie to finally have a real media center.
