LEARNING

Library & Resource Centres


The MRC Library & Resource Centres are welcoming, vibrant, flexible spaces offering a wide range of resources to students and staff. Strategically placed at both campuses, they are the cornerstones of our Mercy Regional College community.


Students are drawn to the place where innovation, individuality and diligence are advocated at all times. Peaceful study, collegial discussions and classes are welcomed into our inclusive environment, where inquiring minds of students are nurtured in their day to day learning. We take any opportunity to encourage students to become lost in wonderful stories, experience new ideas and explore digital technology. Fostering a love of reading, along with developing skills in gathering and assessing information are essential in promoting success with our students.
