CSPD school libraries are physical and digital places of inquiry and reading.
They provide access to a range of resources that help students on their learning journey and help inspire purposeful learning.
Through access to our library resources and services, students develop a range of learner dispositions and capabilities to cultivate a culture of curiosity, creativity, imagination and innovation.
Our physical library
Known as the Mercy Library, our modern resource centre provides access to laptops, data projector, and reading and learning spaces.The Mercy Library supports classroom learning with extensive literacy resources, resources and equipment for all the Key Learning Areas.
Strong information literacy skills are developed through Resource-Based Learning (RBL), our preferred model of research at Our Lady of Mount Carmel.
As students engage with a variety of resources, we hope they develop the research skills to support their lifelong learning journey.
