"What makes an effective primary school library? A wide range of diverse books which are regularly refreshed. Book stock in the library should engage a range of pupils’ own interests and support the curriculum for all phases in the school, fully representing the diversity of contemporary family life and society in a range of media."
National Literacy Trust & Penguin 2021.
What we do
We are recruiting pilot schools around the UK and providing them with eLibraries that transform the reading materials their children can access.

A National School EBook Library
We are working to demonstrate the value of eBook libraries by providing them to pilot schools all around the UK. Our ultimate goal is the establishment of a National School EBook Library, stocked with the entire catalogue of children’s books, with fantastic search and discovery, made available to every child through their school, available 24/7, funded by central government
"Let's put a library in the pocket of every child in every school in the UK!"
"We are committed to levelling up access to books across geographical areas and socioeconomic groups. By supporting learning to read, reading for pleasure and reading for the curricululum we aim to improve educational outcomes and social mobility."
