our library is an 8-9

we have about 30 computers, however classes get prefference so its up to teachers to decide if they want to let you use the spares and the "special kids" have 5 reserved for them whether they come down to use them or not.

3/4 of the librarians are bitches but one is nice and genuinly helpful and we have a whole wall dedicated to year 12 resources

Eh, its okay. 7/10
We practically have no books though. :haha:

But aside from that,
Computer and internet usage is okay, new laptops and pretty speedy wifi network.
And it's a pretty good place to study actually. :)

Librarian - Annoying and doesn't stfu, continuously checks to make sure people are doing schoolwork - 0/10.
Books - Eh, bit too much of a focus on religion and history for my liking - 4/10.
Computers - About 30 macbooks (as much as I hate macs) and about 20 PC's. Pretty decent, most of the time it's easy to get one. - 8/10.
Senior study area - Nice polished table, and about 10 PC's. Luckily it's always empty, so i'll give it a 7/10.
Toilets? None, and it's annoying to have to interrupt study to walk halfway accross the school just to take a piss. - 0/10.

I'll give it a 7, although it really deserves something like a 5.

Frikkin library staff are insane. Paranoid and obsessed man, I swear.

Staff=0
Rest of library=8

So 8+0/2 = 4
Seems like all librarians seem to crazy old men. Same here.

The book selection is not that great and they often buy one lone book out a series - for example, there's volume 13 of Fruits Basket (a manga) floating arround our school ~ lol

Photocoping and printing is quite expensive, but occasionally the system stufs up and its free printing for all, yay

We have around 50 (?, two computer rooms at any rate), but it is suprisingly difficult to find a spare considering we have a laptop program as well

Study for seniors is excellent since they have individual study rooms so we can go in and have some peace and quiet from the juniors watching anime

so all in all, its pretty good. 9?

my school shares a campus with Uni and TAFE so we've got a pretty good library.
Tonnes of computers, two sound proof study rooms, couches downstairs, tables upstairs.
Plus, a nice and helpful librarian :)

We've got a student learning centre with more computers, video editing, etc on the other side of the campus.

10/10 :)
