Over the next few weeks and months of uncertainty, the Great School Libraries campaign group wanted to do something useful. With schools closing and many now find themselves at home supporting their children's learning. We wanted to offer a place to ask a question if you are a parent looking for resources, a school librarian trying to support your local school community or a teacher we want to be here for you.
​
Our team are happy to share their expertise and will try to answer as many questions as we can to help point you in the right direction. If you post a question below we will answer as soon as we can. Please create a title that will help others understand the information you need. Thank you

Hi thanks for the info, I am also looking into setting up an ebook collection at St Benedict's. Do you know of a supplier that provides access to a range of eTextbooks, rather than going to the publishers individually? Do any of the above ebook providers have textbooks included in their bundles? Thanks, Emma
Thank you Elizabeth, it looks as though the Sora starter collection is the same as the Overdrive one But I will double check that, and look at the CILIP and SLA lists. Best wishes, Louis
The one that I used and liked was Sora https://meet.soraapp.com/
I also know that Wheelers are recommended https://eplatform.co/uk
I am sure there are others and hopefully someone else may respond too.
The SLA have put together a list of resources currently available which might be worth checking out as currently many are offering extended free access which is great for trying them out first. https://www.sla.org.uk/school-closure-resources-books-and-reading
CILIP SLG have also put a list together that would be worth checking out too. https://www.cilip.org.uk/members/group_content_view.asp?group=201313&id=860841
