I am the school librarian at Commerce. I have been in education for over twenty years and have served as a school librarian at the elementary, middle and high school levels, with most of my experience at the high school level. I feel very fortunate to be a part of the Commerce family.
I want you to know that the library resources are not just for your children; they are also for you. Any links that are posted on this site, including the Gale Databases, can be accessed from home. We have many great resources posted on the Commerce Catalog Main Page, including newspapers, eBooks, and tools for homework help. You can also use that site to browse our entire library collection.
I have posted some links below that you may find particularly relevant, including financial aid guides and teen mental health resources. If there is something specific you would like to see, I am always happy to add new topics.
Also, check out the "Library Newsletters" tab for additional information. Please feel free to contact me at dutsarl@springfieldpublicschools.com or (413) 787-7220; x-48855 with any questions or comments.
Thank you!
Mrs. Dutsar
