This is an optional, graded, programme open to all Senior Library Monitors; providing an opportunity for the School to recognise the level of hard work and effort that the girls put in to the running of the Justham Library throughout the year. Girls are encouraged to develop important transferable skills such as organisation, communication and interpersonal skills. Each level of the programme requires girls to attain a certain standard of competency in four main areas: responsibilities, desk duties, resources, and customer service. As girls move through the programme they continue to build upon these areas of capability, developing in confidence and aptitude.
Some comments from Library Monitors who have taken part in the programme:

Being a Library Monitor has been an amazing experience so far. I have learned so much
