If you're looking to encourage a love for books, improve literacy, and give students a peaceful, relaxing, purpose-built reading space, we can design and install a bespoke school library or reading nook. Designed to meet the needs of your setting, your new modular library or book nook will provide the perfect environment for reading, learning and imagination!

Many schools, like Morven Park Primary School in Nottingham, have chosen to transform their provisions by investing in a bespoke modular library. After carefully discussing their requirements, we agreed on a 8.0m x 4.0m Hybrid Cedar cladded eco school room. Now their build provides a bright, modern and inviting space for the students to access and enjoy.

School Library Connected Cabins Case Study

Sherbourne Fields School in Coventry, an all-age specialist school, offers an exciting and creative education to pupils with a wide range of physical, medical, and learning needs. To enhance the learning experience for their students, the school decided to add a unique and inspiring element to their facilities. They chose our 14m² connected cabins with solar domes and a covered porch to create a brand-new, magical school library space.

The new library is not just a place to read, but an engaging and cosy learning environment that stimulates students. The cabins are designed to provide a comfortable, accessible, and immersive space where students can explore books, settle down, and enjoy a sense of wonder. With thoughtful design features such as natural light from the solar domes and bench seating areas, the new library offers an exciting atmosphere that encourages both independent and collaborative learning.

Our school library cabins are customisable to suit the needs of your educational setting, whether you're looking for a small reading nook, a larger library building, or a multifunctional space. We work closely with each school to design a layout that maximises space and encourages interaction, creativity, and independent learning.

A well-designed school library or reading nook can have a profound impact on students' academic success and enthusiasm for learning. Providing a dedicated space which is built to last will benefit students for years to come.

Donington Cowley Endowed Primary School's Outdoor Library Cabin

We were delighted to install 'Robin’s Nest' - a 17m² school library cabin with a side room extension layout for Donington Cowley Endowed Primary School in Spalding, Lincolnshire. Funded by The Cowley Trust, this new facility provides an inspiring learning environment for shared reading, independent study, and storytelling. Designed to ignite imagination and foster a love of reading, Robin’s Nest already plays a valuable role in the school’s commitment to developing literacy.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Modular Library?

A modular library is a library building made from prefabricated sections built off-site and assembled on location. Modular library buildings are a fast, cost-effective solution to creating library and reading space with minimal disruption during installation.

Are school library cabins insulated for year-round use?

Yes! Our cabins are fully insulated and built with high-quality materials to ensure they remain warm in the winter and cool in the summer, providing a comfortable reading environment all year round.

Why choose a log cabin library or modular library?

A cabin provides a quiet, dedicated space for reading and learning, away from the distractions of a busy school environment. It offers a cost-effective and flexible alternative to traditional building extensions.

What makes a good school library?

A good school library is more than just a room filled with books—it’s an engaging, welcoming space that encourages a love for reading and supports learning, a place  students want to spend time in! Think cosy seating areas, a quiet atmosphere, and good lighting. We can help your school to design the perfect library or book nook for your setting. 

 

How long does it take to install a school library cabin?

Most of our school library cabins, reading nooks and modular libraries can be installed within a few days, depending on size and customisation. We aim to minimise disruption to the school environment.

Do you need planning permission for a School Library?

Planning permission requirements for school libraries vary depending on the size, location, and specific regulations in your area. It’s essential to consult your local planning authority to determine whether planning permission is needed for your project. In some cases, school library buildings may fall under permitted development rights, which do not require planning permission.
