Abstract: I AM GOING TO BE TALKING about the library of Niddrie Marischal School in Edinburgh, because I feel very strongly that a school library has to fit its school, has to fit the needs of its pupils. What is a good school library for one school may not be only inadequate but calamitous for another school. The school librarian—whether a teacher or a trained librarian—the staff, the pupil‐librarians, and succeeding classes of pupils have to work together over many years to build up a library and a tradition—for a library is more than books. Moreover, there must always be room for improvement. The librarian must always be open to new ideas.
