Our Middle School Standard Service consists of the
following services:
- loan collection of two books per pupil, usually chosen
from our
mobile library, which visits each school twice per year;
-
topic loans - one topic box per class per term. Each topic
box contains 20 books and is loaned for one term, with delivery and
collection free;
- our team of professional librarians offer an
Advisory Service to support schools in developing any aspect of
their school libraries, and to help to develop pupils' information
handling skills;
- book ordering facilities are available to help schools to order
good quality new resources at 22 per cent discount;
- 'Talking Books' - termly fiction discussion group meeting for
teachers and school library staff;
- free entry to our Book Mastermind competition for pupils in
years seven and eight.
Our Standard Service price is worked out using a formula which
includes both an amount per school and an amount per student.

We are currently consulting with schools over potential changes to
our Standard Service package from September 2011. We anticipate
finalising the new service during the Spring Term, and further
information will be published on this site as soon as it is
available.
