Library audit services

Is your library a warm and inviting place that encourages pupils to read for pleasure? If you need a helping hand to achieve this, a member of our team can work with you to enhance your library provision. Our expert team of qualified librarians and children’s book specialists, have a passion to create dynamic, child friendly library spaces – they read and review around 10,000 newly published children and young adult books every year and so are well placed to advise you.

Library consultation and stock analysis 

If your stock is tired and needs an injection of new books, we can help.

We will weed your existing stock, removing any out of date or shabby titles whilst working with you to consider the best organisation and layout. Once completed we will supply you with a report outlining any stock gaps and areas for investment.

Library reorganisation

Can your pupils easily find the books they want on the shelves? Are the books labelled and jacketed?

Our professional staff can help with a range of projects, from non-fiction classification (Dewey decimal or colour coding), book levelling/banding and identifying books for the Accelerated Reader™ programme to data integration and labelling.

We can also shelve your new stock if you have recently purchased books from us.
