Resources from your local library

These are a list of electronic resources available to you from your home computer, free of charge, using your local library card. These are rich, well referenced resources and very well worth more than just a look!

Library cards

  • We suggest you save your library card number as a Notepad file at school and home so you don't need the actual card. 
  • Remove the spaces from the card number
  • For Birmingham cards, you need to remove the last two digits or letters
  • For Worcestershire cards, just for Britannica encyclopaedia, add an R at the start of the card number
  • Sandwell - you need to phone them to set up a PIN number for your card
