Information Resources Centers
IRCs Overview
Mashrek has four Information Resources Centers (IRCs) that provide up-to-date printed and digital material, as well as online resources. Our collections are properly selected to promote international mindedness and multiculturalism. Our resources are always in hand, to all community members, to enrich their knowledge and develop their awareness of local and global issues. All services and practices in the IRCs aim to encourage students to be critical thinkers, enthusiastic readers, skillful researchers and ethical users of information. The continuous collaboration between the IRC staff and our teachers ensures that the school's community is catered in terms of providing engaging resources, enhancing students' literacy skills, organizing workshops and interviews with experts, book clubs, reading competitions, etc.
