Great School Libraries
The Great School Libraries campaign is a three-year campaign launched in September 2018 spearheaded by The Library and Information Association (CILIP) and the School Library Association (SLA). The goal is to ensure that every child experiences a school library due to the multitude of benefits that they bring – both academically and personally. Their mission is to bring libraries and access to librarians back to every school in the UK.
The campaign seeks to engage with stakeholders at all levels including school library workers, parents, teaching staff, senior leadership and decision-makers. Through evidence-based research, this campaign advocates for every child to have access to a great school library. The campaign aims to show that adequately funded and staffed school libraries deliver enhanced and independent learning as well as reading and curriculum support; they contribute to building lifelong readers and support whole school initiatives promoting reading for pleasure.
Great School Libraries is working with the Lightbulb Trust to produce current research into the provision of books and reading resources in schools.
