2007 Celebrations
Pupils gathered to celebrate school libraries in the 21st century and think about what their own school library means to them. T-shirt designs were drawn up, ready for some T-shirt painting. Pupils were also challenged to imagine what school libraries might be like in 2020, presenting their entries in any format - painting, song, drama piece...
The designer of the best T-shirt and winner of the 'Library in 2020' competition each chose a prize from the Library's prize box.
New-look website launches 2009
Our new-look site was launched on International School Library Day 2009; what better way to celebrate school libraries, often at the forefront of new technologies designed to promote learning and the enjoyment of reading, than on this day!

Hot Quote
I pray no child of mine should ever descend into such a place as a Library. They are indeed most dangerous places and unfortunate is she or he who is lured into such a hellhole of enjoyment, stimulus, facts, passion and fun.
