Library Services to Schools

  • The Schools Library Service is based at Scottish Borders Library HQ, forming part of the department providing services to children, young people and schools

  • The Project Loan collection provides a service to primary schools: teachers can request a box of resources to support the curriculum. Resources covering a wide range of topics are held, including a new collection to support Eco-schools. These resources are mainly books, with a limited selection of posters, CD-Roms and videos.  The boxes are delivered and collected by the service wherever possible at the beginning and end of each term, although this cannot be guaranteed

  • Resources for nursery and pre-school groups, including picture and story books, are also available.

  • Staff are happy to advise on Primary School Library and Reader Development

  • Each Secondary School has a School Library Resource Centre run by a professional librarian, which serves the school community
