Library Resources

Library Catalog

Use the library catalog, which is called Destiny to search for books in the AHS library collection. Remember to login once you're on Destiny, so that your searches are limited to just the Annandale collection, and so that you can actually open and read any of the ebooks you find. 

Directions for logging in to our Destiny Library Catalog:

  • Click the link to the Destiny
  • Login using the button on the upper right of the page where it says "Log In." 
  • After clicking the Log In button you’re taken to another login page
  • Click where it says "Log in using your account with Fairfax County Public Schools" 
  • Enter your regular network login information
  • You should see the Destiny page again, but you should also see:
    • Welcome, (your name) to Annandale High School
    • Remember, if you don’t login,
      • you won’t be able to open the ebooks, and
      • all your searches will be for all FCPS libraries, not just Annandale's
