Library

Welcome to the Ayr Academy Library. Explore this page to find useful resources and guides for both parents and students. Students can also find book recommendations and order books through our school library service. All Ayr Academy staff take pride in fostering a reading culture throughout the school and we run a number of whole school literacy-based initiatives each year.   We are delighted to have recently achieved our SILVER Reading Schools accreditation and are currently working towards GOLD. We are also very excited to bring Read Woke challenge to Scotland and South Ayrshire.  

The library is open to all students and staff.   Junior pupils will have timetabled library periods but all pupils are encouraged to access the library.
