Library borrowing

Have you got enough holiday reading?!

Remember that we have increased the borrowing limit for all students to 6 books each!  

Children can send me an email (bbremner@arm.catholic.edu.au) requesting books they would like to borrow, or I can choose some for them. 

Students can search our Oliver library website to find books they would like to borrow.  The website can be found on all student devices under Managed Bookmarks in the Bookmarks bar. 

Books can be returned and picked up from the office during school hours. Books that are returned will be ‘quarantined’ for 24 hours and thoroughly cleaned before they are put back on the shelf. 

St Philomena's Library Homepage Instructions

I have attached a file with instructions for you to follow so you can access our St Philomena’s Library homepage.  Students from Years 2 -10 will need to login into their Google account in order to access it.    

They will then have access to:

Worldbook Online encyclopedia 

SORA ebooks and audiobooks

Jacaranda Plus Atlas

KidsNews online newspaper platform

Premier’s Reading Challenge homepage

I have also attached instructions on how to access ebooks and audiobooks from the SORA platform.

Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you need further clarification (bbremner@arm.catholic.edu.au).
