Research Databases:
The resources within The John P. Ryan Library are comparable to most high school and college libraries. Our library subscribes to more than 30 web-based research databases, which are accessible to our students at any time on or off campus.
While some are specialized for history, science, literature, art, and music, others provide access to hundreds of academic journals across all disciplines.
The Ryan Library:
The Ryan Library has a variety of study spaces from the quiet of the book-lined Scheerer Reading Room to the buzz of the Moffat Room’s collaborative space. The beautiful, stained-glass windowed Memorial Room, which memorializes those Hill alumni who served in our country’s wars, is located off the main floor of the Library as is the ITS Help Desk. The Library also is home to The Humphrey Family Writing Center, Levis '45 * Alexandre '75 Center for Humanities, and The Hill School Archives. The Library truly is where tradition and innovation meet.
