Mayfield Senior School has an excellent Women's Studies collection which includes hundreds of volumes. See our librarian Mrs. Gail McKissick for assistance.

Women's Literature students are also required to have online access to either the Pasadena Public Library or the Los Angeles Public Library. We will be using the online databases for our research project.  Any Mayfield student is eligible for a card at either library with parent approval. 

We will primarily use the Gale Literature Database which is available at both libriaries; however, LAPL also has available the larger Wilson Humanities Database and the Oxford English Dictionary online edition.

You may apply for library cards at each library, or online. Please have your card with you at school by October 1.
