Book Swap 

It's that time of year again! The Great Book Swap is just around the corner and we are asking you, the students, family and staff of Moama Grammar, to declutter your books and donate what you can to the school.

But what is the Great Book Swap?  The aim of the Great Book Swap is about embracing the love of reading whilst also learning more about Indigenous language and culture. 

The idea is to swap a gold coin for a donated book; the funds raised go towards the Indigenous Literacy Foundation. Moama Anglican Grammar is one of the many schools, workplaces, libraries, universities, book clubs who can host a Great Book Swap along with individuals and all kinds of organisations. 

So this is where we call on you to make a donation of pre-loved books.  There will be boxes in the Main office and the Primary School office to place your book donations.

Borrowing and Returns

Students may borrow and return books before school, recess, lunch time and after school. Primary School students also have the chance to borrow books during their fortnightly Library lessons. 

Renewals

Students are able to re-borrow books for an additional two weeks by speaking to staff at the Library Circulation Desk. If further borrowing is requested after this, students are required to bring their book with them to allow the staff to sight the book. In addition, students can renew their book/s by emailing the Library.

Request

If your child would like to borrow a specific book and the title is not included in our current catalogue, we will add this to our purchase wishlist.

Overdue notices

If you receive an overdue notice there is a chance that the books may been processed through our system after the email was sent, so we encourage all parents to follow up any issues by emailing the Resource Centre at library@moamagrammar.nsw.edu.au

If you have any other enquiries, issues or concerns please do not hesitate to contact us via phone by ringing the main office or via email address library@moamagrammar.nsw.edu.au.
