Welcome to Rosny College Library

Our goal is to teach students the essential skills for information literacy so that they may access, critically evaluate and use ideas and information. It is our mission to provide access to relevant up-to-date resources for our college community and to foster a positive attitude to learning and libraries. We value life-long learning skills and encourage literacy through reading.

Rosny College's well-established library provides access to relevant up-to-date resources for our College community supported by helpful and professional staff. The library provides a quiet and friendly working atmosphere for students to study individually and with their classes.
