CSPD school libraries are physical and digital places of inquiry and reading.
They provide access to a range of resources that help students on their learning journey and help inspire purposeful learning.
Through access to our library resources and services, students develop a range of learner dispositions and capabilities to cultivate a culture of curiosity, creativity, imagination and innovation.
OUR PHYSICAL LIBRARY
The Marian College Learning Resource Centre (LRC) is a reference and recreational centre, providing a welcoming and stimulating atmosphere to assist in the development of the skills, competencies and attitudes necessary to become lifelong learners.
The centre offers a range of student services including printing and photocopying and access to laptops. The LRC is open before and after school, as well as recess and lunchtimes.
Housed within the LRC is 'Steph’s Study', a space for students in Years 11 and 12 to use for study during class time. This space is dedicated to the late Stephanie Bruce, a Marian student who lost her life after a battle with cancer. Her love of life and learning inspires our senior students to strive to live every day to its fullest and get the most from life’s opportunities.
