We encourage students and staff to sign up as a member of the public library. Local libraries are spread across Bristol and South Gloucestershire. You can join the library either in your local branch or online.
Use your local library to find resources that the school library does not stock. You can search the library catalogue by using Libraries West. If your local library does not have the item you require they may be able to order this for you.
Your public library can source books and other reference materials (maps and other artefacts) as well as provide access to electronic resources such as e books, digital newspapers, magazines and online databases. These can normally be accessed free of charge from the LibrariesWest page using your Library Card number.
