Need help with your homework?

We have lots of information books in Swindon Libraries to help with all your homework needs.  Take a look at the library catalogue to see if we have the book you want.

Homework solutions at your local library

In addition to the information books that you can borrow, each library has a  Homework Help collection for use in the library only - a great solution if half your class has borrowed all the books on Romans!  Each collection contains books on history, geography, science, religion, music, art and famous people.  Some of these are internet-linked so you can find even more useful homework information on the web.
