Destiny

Destiny 2

Destiny is the Library Management System used in both the Lower and Upper School libraries at Egham. Through Destiny, users can access the holdings of the chosen library as well as those of all the other ACS libraries (except HS Cobham).  Our resources include books, e-books, e-audio books, websites and databases.  Destiny is not difficult to access at a basic level but user use would be enhanced by a workshop from either of the school's librarians.

Individual access to reach your own account.  See Librarian.

You can also access the catalogue without logging in.
