Welcome to the International School of Helsingborg Library
MYP Campus Library
The International School of Helsingborg (ISH) School Library aims to create a welcoming environment that promotes learning for all students. Our school library houses an extensive collection of English fiction and non-fiction books for basic, intermediate, and advanced readers. We also have a wide selection of Swedish books, and some ‘mother-tongue’ fiction books in other languages. These books may be enjoyed in the library or borrowed for leisure reading at home.
The school library is a space that belongs to the students of the school. Our vision is to provide the students with a peaceful and engaging space where activities such as reading, and thinking are encouraged. Developing a diverse resource collection and library services, that incorporate both analogue and digital mediums, is a task we value. This goes hand in hand with our mission of facilitating activities that combine information skills and critical thinking with creative pedagogy.
