Library

Welcome to the Westgate Library!

The library is a place for you to ask questions, find a great book, or work on an assignment. Mr. Klassen Bartel is in the library to help with whatever you might need: finding resources for an assignment, suggesting your next great read, or just for a chat. Please come by (during your allotted time) and say hi to Mr. Klassen Bartel!
