The creation, implementation and regular updating of a library policy and development plan allows a school to maximise the impact of its library and learning resource provision, and is an essential task for anyone concerned to develop the library as a whole-school resource and focus for learning.

This Guideline gives you all the advice you need to do both jobs. It takes you carefully through the steps needed to produce a realistic and comprehensive policy and gives you the route to produce a credible and meaningful development plan.

Six appendices give sample case studies, library policies and development plans from three primary schools and three secondary schools.

Rachel Sargeant has worked in school libraries for seven years, first at a grammar school then at a prep school. Previously she was an area manager with the London Borough of Bromley, managing a group of public libraries and the borough-wide mobile library service. Her early professional roles included children's librarian in the London Borough of Richmond and information librarian with Surrey Libraries. Rachel is also a crime fiction writer, published by HarperCollins Killer Reads and Endeavour Press.
