While waiting for all the fantastic books you requested for the Campus Library, don't forget that you can access ebooks and audiobooks from BorrowBox through you Library account. Please email Ms Newbury if you need any help to do this

Our libraries are temporarily closed so we've added lots of new eBooks and audiobooks to our BorrowBox collection. Open 24/7, check one out today:

“A School Library is Like the Bat Cave: it's a safe fortress in a chaotic world, a source of knowledge and the lair of a superhero.” Today we say goodbye to our superhero - Ms Newbury - after two decades at @LargsCampusLib 📕 ❤️ 📚 Thanks for everything 😊

We’re so proud of our P6 & P7 pupils whose enthusiasm for reading and engagement in challenges @LargsCampusLib were recognised at yesterday’s R-Oscars! Thanks to Ms, Newbury and her team of S1 & S2 pupils! @AliAllan_PLL

@NAC_Literacy @NAC_ERS @NACLibraries @largsps @StMarysLargs The R-Oscars are coming! Lunchtime hive of activity at the Campus Library! Getting creative for our All About the Books award, and preparing to tell others about the fabulous range of new books for our primary Library!

@NAC_Literacy @NAC_ERS @NACLibraries @largsps @StMarysLargs The R-Oscars are coming! Amazed and impressed by the P7s at our lunchtime Silent Reading sessions whobmake the most of the time to develop personal reading & independent learning skills. Great reading role models!

@Elizabethutch The books don't appear on the shelves by themselves: professional librarians put much care and thought into carefully curating collections which reflect learning priorities, individual tasks and current trends

I had no money growing up. My dad was a labourer and my mum did everything to make ends meet. Men worked hard. Women worked miracles. But education was free. As was the local library. I knew books were my passport to a better life. Happy #WorldBookDay

Call from @CILIPScotland for urgent intervention over threats to remove all school librarian posts in some areas.

Our Awards ceremony is for pupils in S2, S1, P7, and in some cases, P6.

Most awards will have a Long and Short List. Anyone on the Short List has a good chance of winning the Award!
