Love our Libraries provides online training, resources and research for those working in school libraries.
Our school libraries research review shows that school libraries have a positive impact on all areas of pupils’ learning, including the development of reading and writing skills, their wellbeing and overall academic attainment.
Good school libraries also contribute to the development of a reading for pleasure culture. When effectively run by knowledgeable staff, with a range of high quality books and resources, good school libraries can transform whole school reading provision.
Many schools have limited resources and space. Love our Libraries provides inspiration and ideas that will help schools transform reading in their school communities whatever their current provision is.
We provide evidence-based online training which includes resources to help schools audit and develop their reading for pleasure provision, putting school libraries at the heart of their reading communities. Please read the login instructions before you begin.

We work in partnership with organisations like Penguin Random House to run inspirational projects such as Puffin World of Stories.
