Instructional Materials and Research Services
A core mission of the Intermediate Units in Pennsylvania is to provide constituent districts with access to cutting edge, timely instructional materials for use in the classroom. The IMRS department specializes in providing Bucks County schools with a wealth of resources to enhance instruction. As we have transitioned from film strips to VHS tapes to DVDs to streaming digital video, our collection of materials has maintained a high quality of educational standards, while expanding to deliver a more diverse collection in an on-demand environment.
