School Library Service Has a Shift
After being in a converted house in Collingwood Street for about the last 15 years, the School Library Service now has a new and permanent home in the new Peter Malone building in Rutherford Street. Here, recently, we saw the staff shifting the 30,000 books which the school distributes to 110 schools in the Nelson and Marlborough districts.
