How does a Peters library audit work? 

Our team can support with weeding your existing book stock, removing any out-of-date or worn titles and working with you to consider the best organisation and layout for your library.

We can also audit to support diversity and inclusion, ensuring your school library or classroom book stock reflects the backgrounds and experiences of all students. Once the audit is complete we'll send you a report outlining any stock gaps and areas for investment.

Can you help organise my library? 

Can your pupils easily find the books they want on the shelves? Are the books labelled and jacketed?

Our team can help with a range of projects, from non-fiction classification (Dewey decimal or colour coding), book levelling/banding and identifying books for the Accelerated Reader™ programme to data integration and labelling.

We can also shelve your new stock if you have recently purchased books from us.

Why should you have a school library audit?

Reading for pleasure is vital to children's attainment and wellbeing, and a well stocked library is key to maintaining a reading for pleasure culture in your school.

However with limited time and budgets, school libraries can sometimes become outdated – but our team are here to help. Read our diary of a school library auditor to find out more.
