Project Box Collection & Delivery Dates - Important updates
We are currently recruiting for a new library van driver which is impacting on our services. While we recruit to the role, we will be unable to collect Term 1 project boxes from schools in December as usual.
Term 1 boxes - collection
If you are able to return project boxes to Library & Museum Headquarters in Haddington, that is most appreciated. If so, please contact us at the details below to arrange a suitable time for drop off. Otherwise, we will collect Term 1 boxes in the new year. Dates of collection will follow once we have a driver in post.
Term 2 boxes - delivery
We aim to get Term 2 project boxes out to schools in late January. We may be able to provide boxes sooner if you are able to collect from Library & Museum Headquarters. However, due to delayed returns of Term 1 boxes, we will have a limited selection of books and therefore may not be able to fill every project request.
A project request form is attached. For inclusion in the delivery of Term 2 boxes, please return to schoollibraryservice@eastlothian.gov.uk as soon as possible. The earlier you get your request in, the more likely we will have stock available to fill it. Exact dates of collection will follow once we have a driver in post.
We thank you for your patience and understanding and we look forward to resuming full services as soon as we are able.
Project box request form. Please email completed form to SchoolLibraryService@eastlothian.gov.uk
