| Hartismere's Library |
| Mrs J Lewis Librarian |
|
 The
Library plays an important part in supporting our pupils’ learning in
all subjects and also offers a place for independent research. Computers
are in place for research/study purposes. They provide the full range of
programmes common to the school’s networked system and access to the
Internet. |
|
The
Library is open throughout the school day. During lesson time it is
available for whole class bookings or use by small groups of pupils.
Sixth Form students also have timetabled Library study periods. At
lunchtime the Library is open to all those who wish to use it for quiet
study or reading but at break time the atmosphere is more relaxed, and
the Library becomes a lively, social place. |
|
All pupils are automatically members of the Library. They are allowed
to take out up to three books (fiction for two weeks and/or non-fiction
for one week). Sixth Formers are permitted five books. |
|
|
|
The Library is the venue for a variety of events. We have had
readings and talks by visiting speakers; quizzes and competitions. We
take part in the annual Suffolk Book Mastermind competition and the
Carnegie Medal shadowing process. |
| Termly Book Fairs allow outside
agencies to bring in books for the pupils and students to buy or choose
for the library. We hope to continue this practice in order to nurture
and to reinforce good reading habits in Hartismere. |
