Welcome to EMS Doha Library


What a better way to start off a new school year than with lots of NEW BOOKS! That's right! We have already received new books for everyone to enjoy most especially the students. We hopefully will get the books ready for borrowing by 16th Septemeber.

We also welcome Ms. Nuala Reid (Secondary Teacher Librarian) and Ms. Liz Carillo (Secondary Assistant Librarian) to the library team this year. They are both very positive and excited to meet and welcome students from secondary school. Any concerns regarding the Secondary library should be directed to nuala.reid@emsdoha.net



Here is the new look of the secondary library which is now a little smaller in space BUT not in collection and services. Student entrance remains through Block A upper floor.
