Library Lions is temporarily closed

Library Lions offer an affordable, sustainable alternative to restock and improve
your library and classroom libraries with quality, curriculum-aligned books.

We offer a wide range of fiction and non-fiction titles,
hand-picked for primary school libraries and classrooms by a
professional teacher-librarian.

All books are second-hand, in very good to excellent condition.

They are priced from $4 to $8, approximately one-third of retail value.

Each Library Lions stocklist groups its books by collections and categories,
mirroring the needs and requirements of teachers and librarians.
