Library

  Welcome to the Deerfield High School Library—the heart of DHS and a vibrant, inclusive space brimming with intellectual energy. Our mission is to equip students with essential information literacy skills that enhance their personal, academic, and professional journeys.

Our beautifully renovated space is filled with natural light, a rich collection of books and graphic novels by diverse authors from various backgrounds, and ample study areas with charging outlets. We reach beyond physical walls with digital resources, including ebooks, audiobooks, newspapers, and scholarly databases—all enhancing our Warriors' learning experience. Our knowledgeable and kind library family fosters a creative community, shaping young minds and sharing stories. Committed to being student-centered, we offer personalized and classroom instruction, along with comprehensive resources and services to support every student's success.

Citation Guide

Credit should always be given for anyone else's ideas or words used.

A bibliography is an alphabetized list of information sources. It contains all of the works that you actually use in your paper or presentation, as well as a list of other books or sources you read but didn't directly use in your project.

A works cited list is the part of a formal research paper that lists, in bibliographic format, only the sources actually cited within the body of the report.

An annotated bibliography contains an evaluative description of the information source after each citation.
