Different kinds of library resources

What are 'resources'?

You may hear the word resources used to describe items that can be borrowed. This is because the library has a lot more than just books. Resources includes books, and a whole load of other things!

A library has lots of books, and also other items like laptops, DVDs, CDs, maps, medical models and primary school teaching kits. These are all called Resources.
