The Muriel Philpot Watson Library’s collection at Foxcroft includes a wide variety of books, and our staff will work with students to ensure that the books selected to meet this requirement match the interests and reading levels of our diverse student body.

Certain books are currently not accepted for the Library Reading Requirement because they are already taught in required courses, or do not meet the standards. Download this updated list for more information on some commonly assigned books that do not meet the graduation requirement.
