Welcome to the Library Resource Centre!

"A good book is the best of friends, the same today and forever" 
Martin Fraquhar Tupper

The information on these pages will not only introduce you to the Library Resource Centre but help you get the best from it.  The School Resource Centre is an important part of your school life.  Whatever subjects you are studying, whatever  your hobbies are, you will find something in the library that will be of interest.

All staff and students are  members of the library on entry to the school!
