Harrow School Library Service provides professional library services to primary, nursery and special schools.
We support reading and learning in school libraries through tailor-made project loans, and professional advice and support to a very high standard.
We provide the best available resources so that schools can create inspirational libraries, where children develop a love of books and reading skills that will support them through their academic careers and beyond.
If your school is outside the borough of Harrow and you are interested in subscribing to the service, please contact us via the contact details at the end of this page.
