Semester 2 underway!

This semester has really started off with a bang! We have a whole stack of new magazines and the Laser eBooks are ready to go. We've also spent a lot of time selecting a range of different magazines for students to read. The library now has magazines on cooking, gaming, technology, movies, dirt biking, travel and special interest. These magazines are currently unable to be loaned out, but staff and students are more than welcome to come and read them at recess and lunchtimes at their own leisure. At this point the plan is that the eBooks are for staff to borrow out in a single class set. A number of classic novels have already been uploaded. We are more than happy to search for more titles at teachers' requests. Coming soon to the library is the fourth instalment of the "Inheritance Quartet" written by Christopher Paolini and the second book in the "Lorien Legacies" by Pittacus Lore. Also, Isobelle Carmody is releasing the last book of the "Obernewtyn Chronicles" (finally). There are many staff and students that are looking forward to these new arrivals and it will be interesting to see who gets them first. This semester is setting up to be very exciting and fast paced. The library staff are ready and waiting for your requests. Have a good semester two, Barkly College!
