Learning Resource Base

Trinity LRB is changing. Already more than just a school library, its resources are expanding all the time. Expect DVDs, CDs and games to arrive very soon, as well as a new computer system that will allow you to search the catalogue and manage your borrowing online.

How do I borrow books?

All pupils at Trinity are automatically registered with the LRB computer, so it is simply a case of coming in, choosing a book, and taking it to the issue desk to be loaned out. It couldn’t be easier!

The following link shows you how to find the book you are looking for - How To Find What You Need
