SIL Library's Book of the Month

Sheffield Information Link's library, based in our shop at 11 Leopold Street, has a great range of books and other resources. But have you ever wondered exactly what you can find on our shelves?

Every month on the SIL website, we highlight a topical book of the month, to give a flavour of the exciting range we have available. Our resources are carefully selected to be of interest to you in your work with children and young people, to assist you with a childcare qualification or as a parent or carer.
