Secondary School Library
The secondary school’s library is at the centre of Lycée Condorcet’s school life. It provides students with the opportunity to study, read and expand their knowledge in a quiet and bright environment.
The library, in addition to being conducive to exchanges between teachers and students, promotes culture and hosts various exhibitions. Thus, it is at the crossroads of both information and culture which it makes accessible to all. The library is involved in cultural and humanitarian events and projects of the school.
Junior secondary students have free access to the library during morning recess and their lunch break. Senior secondary students are free to come to the Library at any time of the day. The conditions of access depend on activities taking place at the library at that time (class, number of students already present). Priority is given to students who want to work on the computers and/or read. As soon as they arrive, students register on an attendance list.
Documentation Software
The secondary school library – the CDI – uses the BCDI documentation software, published by the Canopé de Poitou-Charentes network. This is a management software used for searching and distributing documents from a documentation centre or library. The software is linked to the platform where you can consult the catalogue and stay up to date with events.
Orientation Space
The CDI possesses a number of publications and websites devoted to tertiary studies and career guidance, as well as the Orientation Office which is run by our Guidance Officers, Mr Vincent and Mrs. Salier.
The software is linked to the E-Sidoc platform where you can consult the catalogue and stay up to date with events.
