Until recently it was believed to contain books, however, contary to popular belief it is merely a store cuppoard (the books were burnt by teachers trying to keep warm in the [[Staffroom]]).

Description

Often described as a "small (cramped), working (no books) library", this is the place where every geek, goon or potential victim of bullying goes. A safe haven away from the rest of the normal pupils. Mostly filled by year 8 and 9's but isn't rare to see a worrying year 10 in there. It is often left to spectate on the affairs of the rest of the school.

Sixth formers are the only group who truly frequent the library, yet are often left in the cold half-way through doing work when told "Please can you leave the library, a library lesson is taking place here." Mrs Sellens and Miss Caton are the prime culprits in this respect.

Furthermore, during a ridiculously long period in summer (and near Christmas), the entire library is closed down so that two people can prepare for oral exams. How pointless.
