We will soon be running Starting School Sessions at Chandler's Ford Library starting Friday 5 June right through to the summer holidays.

Every Friday at 10.30am are the sessions listed below for any children who will be attending Year R for different schools throughout Chandlers Ford, so you can meet other parents and kids you'll be starting school with in September early and also learn about how our libraries can help you all settle in.

There are also sessions on Saturdays that aren't specific to any one school. There's no need to book for any sessions, so feel free to drop in if you can make it.

Do you use the Spydus Library app? This app is used to manage your loans and holds your digital library card. There have been a few changes to the app in the latest update.

When you open the app you will be prompted to create/enter a 6 digit passcode. This can be any number you would like it to be, but should be memorable as you will need to enter this each time you use the app.

You can find your digital library card on your home screen by tapping on the circular card icon with the pink background.

If you want to set up facial recognition or fingerprint sign in - just go to the menu icon (three horizontal lines) in the top left corner, select 'Settings' and under 'Security' you can set this up, and also update your passcode if you need to.

Any problems, please contact us: https://educationforms.apps.hants.gov.uk/p/library-enquiry
