Blanchette Learning Commons
Welcome to the BLC – the Bishop Learning Commons at Providence Catholic High School!
The BLC is a welcoming space designed to support academic success, collaboration, and personal growth. We provide access to reliable, high-quality information sources; instruction and support for students and faculty; and opportunities for enrichment through reading and other activities.
Our flexible space offers:
- Open study areas for individual work or quiet collaboration.
- Two Collaboration Rooms for small and large group projects.
- Five computer workstations available for printing and completing assignments.
- Printers that allow students to send print jobs directly from their own laptops or from any BLC workstation.
- Comfortable seating and a vibrant atmosphere that encourage focus and creativity.
Students can search for books and other materials using Follett Destiny, our electronic card catalog. Through Destiny, users can browse the BLC’s collection, check availability, and even place holds on materials.
We’re here to help you make the most of your time in the BLC—please don’t hesitate to ask us for assistance!
Hours: 7:30 AM – 3:30 PM on days when classes are in session. We will publish any changes to our hours in the Daily Announcements.
Recreational Reading
The BLC has a wonderful collection of fiction in all genres. From classic and inspirational works to contemporary page-turners, you can find it in the BLC! Our book collection not only has 3000 hardcover and paperback books, but over 1000 eBooks as well, which students can read on a laptop, mobile device, or eReader through our FollettShelf and EBSCO subscriptions. Simply search our catalog and find a romance, an adventure, or a good scare. If you want to read, we’ll help you get it!
Students can access Follett Destiny from the Resource page in Blackbaud. Look for the BLC tile.
