24. MELDRUM ACADEMY LIBRARY<br />
<strong>Meldrum</strong> Library is based within the <strong>Academy</strong> and serves the local<br />
community as well as the pupils and staff of the school. Pupils can use the<br />
library from 8.45am for leisure reading, for project work, for research<br />
using the computer facilities, or to borrow books and multi-media items<br />
including videos, talking books, DVDs and CDs.<br />
Pupils are given a regular time to use the library as part of the English<br />
curriculum but there are many opportunities to use the resources to<br />
support the work of their other subjects.<br />
In addition, pupils can use the library at lunchtime to play chess or<br />
draughts, to use the catch-up club for help with homework, or to take part<br />
in the reading club, games club or the maths puzzle club.<br />
Information and communication are the main functions of the library. Here<br />
pupils and members of the community can share resources, work together<br />
on particular projects, find out about careers, use the internet and keep up<br />
to date with what’s happening in the school and in the community.<br />
