Library News

The Premier’s Reading Challenge is well underway and the girls have received their logins and passwords, enabling them to electronically log their reading path. The girls meet at the library each Monday to discuss their progress.

Wheelers ePlatform

Wheelers ePlatform is finally up and running. This is a platform for reading some of the eBooks that are available in the library’s collection. By downloading the app onto a phone or device, then logging in using your College username and password, ebooks can be borrowed and read at leisure. We also have the Follett ebooks which can be accessed by downloading the Discover app and logging in the same way.

The library subscribes to Spine Out, an inspiring online magazine written by and for young adults. To access this magazine, log into the Discover app, scroll down to the Links section then open ‘Good Reading Hub for Book Lovers. Here you can browse current and previous editions of both Good Reading and Spine Out. The College is to begin receiving books from Spine Out for our students to read and review. Next term Mrs Feely will guide interested girls on submitting their reviews to Spine out, where they may be published in subsequent issues. The upcoming books are:  Changing Gear by Scot Gardner, Lady Mary by Lucy Worsley – historical, Paris Syndrome by Lisa Walker, and The Truth and Lies of Ella Black by Emily Barr.

During the holiday break, any student requiring assistance with log in issues, needing assistance with research, or anything library related, please email Mrs Feely on mfeely@saintpatricks.nsw.edu.au.

The library team would like to wish everyone a safe, happy and restful break.
