Clones Library What to expect on a visit

"A library card is the start of a lifelong adventure."

Lillian Jackson Braun

Clones Library is a JAM card friendly organisation. You can show your JAM Card on a visit if you want a little help or need 'Just A Minute' at the desk.

Clones Library is located on 98 Avenue, Clones.

This is the entrance to the library.

This is the way into the library.

On entering the library, the children's section is to the left.

Books in the Children's Area are arranged by Coloured Stickers

The coloured stickers help to know what books are suitable for you.

A letter on the top of each book is the first letter of the author's surname.

This can help you find a book by a particular author quickly.

There is a Young Adult area and these books have a red sticker on the bottom of the spine.

Children's Non-Fiction books are arranged by Subject.

For example if you wanted a book on coding you would find it at Juv-NF-Com (Juvenile NonFiction Computers)

You can borrow items at the library desk

Or you can use your library card to check out your items at the selfservice machine.

The Adult Library is straight ahead as you come into the library.

The adult fiction books are arranged in alphabetical order using the author's surname.

The adult nonfiction books are arranged numerically, using the Dewey Classification system.

You can check the online catalogue to find a particular book or ask the librarian for help.
