Library
Welcome to the Salem Academy library! It is a wonderful place to do research, study, read current periodicals and newspapers, and access the Internet.
Salem Academy library provides a carefully selected and yet comprehensive core collection of library resources for the members of the Academy faculty, staff, and student body as they carry out their scholarly tasks. The collection is supplemented locally by those of the Robert E. Elberson Fine Arts Center and Salem College library which share their resources with the Academy.
Academy faculty, staff and students have access to resources via our NC-PALS web-based catalog consortium. The consortium consist of the libraries at Bennett College, Greensboro College, Guilford College, Salem College and Fine Arts Center. The holdings of these college libraries may be viewed online in the Academy library or from any computer connected to the Internet.
Academy faculty and students may request materials online from any of the colleges in the consortium.
