Glenroy College has a wonderful new library and resource centre that opened in 2021 for our staff and students.
The library embraces our College ethos of encouraging students to become lifetime learners and to develop a love of reading. Staff are committed to supporting the learning and reading needs of our students.
Housed in the new junior learning building, the library already has a wide variety of fiction and non-fiction books in its collection. New books are added each month and students are encouraged to make requests to our Library Manager for particular titles, or their favourite authors.
The fiction section is catalogued by genre to make it easier for students to browse the collection, which includes the latest middle grade and YA literature, graphic novels and a rapidly growing manga and light novel section.
The library is open at lunchtime and recess for borrowing, browsing and study. Our Chess Club runs at lunchtime every Thursday, and students can play games, read, or socialise during breaks. We encourage students to come in and find their next great read or get help with research and online projects.
Students can access the catalogue and online resources via the catalogue button below. Use your eduPass user name and password to log in.
