‘Everybody Reading’ is one of Chipping Norton School’s mission statements. The Library plays an important role in supporting all students to become confident independent learners and to develop a love of reading. As part of our continuing commitment to improve book resources we are constantly increasing and upgrading stock. Suggestions for book purchases are always welcomed.

The Library and Study Tube are open daily from 8.15 am until 4.15pm and students are welcome to read books, borrow resources or do homework during these hours. Students are also able to use the Study Tube computers to take Accelerated Reader quizzes during break, lunch and after school.

Each student is issued with a school identity card which also serves as their library card.

• Sixth Form students are allowed to borrow 10 resources at a time for 4 weeks.
• KS3 and KS4 students are allowed to borrow 5 resources at a time for 2 weeks.

Students can only borrow resources from the library by using their school identity card.

Students are able to borrow fiction and non-fiction books, DVDs and Audio books at no charge. No fines are issued for overdue loans; however, students may be asked to pay replacement costs for lost/damaged resources.
