Welcome!
Here at Loreto Abbey Dalkey, our library is central to a long-term strategy for improving literacy, providing excellent education while promoting the social and cultural development of our students.
Our mission is to make the library the very heart of the school.
The library is a place where students can study, relax at break times, and read.
It is a welcoming and colourful space with desks and chairs, but also comfortable beanbags where students can enjoy reading the newspaper, surfing the net or delving into their favourite book.
Our library offers a varied range of services for the students which include:
Book, magazine and DVD loans
E-book borrowing at our Online Library
Internet access
Printing facilities
Guest speakers
Supervised study
Library Opening Hours
The below times are suited to the students' timetables, however, the library is open for student access throughout the school day. First Years will also enjoy a period of English once a week in the library for "Reading Time" with their teachers.
Mon-Fri:
8.00-8.55 am
Break time
Lunch times
After school (during supervised study)
