The John Paul College Library provides a centralised service to meet the curriculum and recreational needs of College students and staff. The library houses a comprehensive collection of resources, including curriculum specific fiction and non-fiction resources, class sets, home reading, on-line resources, audio-visual materials, and printing and scanning facilities.
Library services are divided into the Senior Library for Years 7 - 12 and the Primary Library for Prep – Year 6.
A web-based library administration system is used to manage the College collection. Advanced features allow users to search the library catalogue remotely, view their current borrowings and overdue items and reserve specific publications.
Access to all library support services including catalogue and e-resources, and staff and student curriculum support is available online. This powerful and pervasive access is available 24/7 to all staff and students.
