Library News

All Library books are now due back

Students must now return all books to the Library as Library staff have commenced stocktake.

 

Overdue notices and payment requests for lost books have been sent out to students and families this week.

 

Thank you to EDSC students for your enthusiastic support of the Library this year. We have been so excited to see your regular book borrowing and excellent Reading Challenge participation.

 

We look forward to lending print books again in 2024. Students can continue to borrow eBooks and audiobooks from the Sora app and Library website anytime throughout the summer holidays.

Year 7 digital bundles will be matched with the student email before the start of the school year.)

2024 Booklist Frequently Asked Questions:

 

What is Campion?

Campion is a third-party company that EDSC uses to administer our booklist and supply new books to students.

 

Do I have to buy everything on the list?

You need to buy everything listed for the subjects your student is enrolled in. However, general stationery items such as pens and rulers do not need to be purchased from Campion if you already own these items or can source them elsewhere.

 

Do I have to buy books through Campion, or can I buy second-hand books elsewhere?

You don’t have to buy the books through Campion. However, there is a risk of buying incorrect editions of textbooks from other parties, as textbooks are revised regularly. If you’d like to buy second-hand books, we recommend buying them through the Sustainable School Shop. This company has been supplied with the EDSC booklist and can help ensure you buy the correct editions. If you buy a second-hand book, you should also check whether you need to purchase a digital code to access any extra online resources required.

 

Why am I charged $16.95 at the end of my order?

Campion charges a $5.95 processing fee for all orders and orders will also be charged a $11 home delivery fee. However, you may be able to organise order pick-up from Campion by contacting Campion directly.
