Library Information
a (Very) quick guide to the library
What Can You Borrow?
2 Books for up to 3 weeks
You can renew them a maximum of 3 times
Return your books on time - other students may be waiting for them
Look after your books - if damaged, water stained, or lost, you will need to pay for a replacement (watch out for leaky water bottles in bags!).
How Do You Find Books?
Fiction books are shelved alphabetically by author surname and arranged in three sections:
Teenage: age 12+
Young Adult: age 14+
Senior: age 16+
Non-fiction is arranged using the Dewey Decimal System.
The Dewey Decimal system is a classification system used by libraries to arrange books via subject. Each book is issued a shelfmark number, found on the spine of the book, and arranged in numerical order.
This makes the information you need much easier to find.
