Get PrimaryLibrary for your school

PrimaryLibrary is the school library system pupils can use themselves — QR library cards, self-checkout and reader guides that match every child to the right book.

Why choose PrimaryLibrary?

Pupil self-service

Pupils scan their own QR library card, then the book — checking out and returning takes seconds, no staff needed at the desk.

Reader & teacher guides

Every book gets UK book bands, reading age, themes and classroom ideas so each child finds the right book.

Kiosk mode

Turn any tablet or laptop into a locked library desk with four big buttons pupils can use on their own.

Safe reviews

Pupils rate books they've borrowed with stars and words your school chooses — no free text.

Privacy first

Only first name, surname initial and class are stored. Cards carry a random code, never a name.

Built for trusts

Run several schools in one system, with every school's data kept separate.
