Abbotsleigh Libraries

Abbotsleigh Libraries includes the Betty Archdale Library at Abbotsleigh's Senior School campus; and the Palmer Library at Abbotsleigh's Junior School campus. Both libraries provide extensive literary resources for all students to promote the joys of literature and enhance student learning through research.

The Abbotsleigh Literary Festival is an exciting biennial event for both students and adults. The festival offers students from all over Sydney, the Central Coast and further afield the opportunity to hear from and work with outstanding Australian and international authors and illustrators at minimal cost. The next Abbotsleigh Literary Festival will take place in August 2018.

Abbotsleigh Libraries also host an annual Teacher Librarians' Conference on school grounds for librarian teachers and staff from primary and secondary schools. The next conference will run on Friday 2 August, 2017. More information can be found here: http://www.abbotsleigh.nsw.edu.au/community/community-events/teacher-librarians-conference
