Secondary Schools

Library operations that run themselves.

Students self-checkout without queuing at your desk. They browse virtual shelves without pulling a single book out of order. Reserves show a live, intelligent estimated pickup date - factoring in the queue ahead of them and each borrower's history - so they can decide whether to wait or find another title.

Reviews are submitted by students and automatically moderated by SmartSuite Library - inappropriate content is flagged before it ever goes live, giving you complete peace of mind without manually reading every comment. And when the laptop trolley needs managing, SmartSuite Library handles that too - WiFi MAC addresses, depreciation, warranties, kits, and damage reports all in one place.

Single sign-on with Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, TASS, Wonde, Compass, and more. Students use their existing school login - no extra passwords, no extra friction.

Every part of the operation, covered

Self-Checkout

Students borrow and return books themselves - no queuing at your desk. Free up your time for the students and teachers who actually need you standing in front of them.

Virtual Shelves

Students virtually browse their favourite shelves from any device - discovering what's available without touching a single book or disturbing the collection order.

Smart Reserves

Reserves show a dynamic estimated pickup date that factors in the queue length and each borrower's overdue history. Students can decide whether to reserve or find another title - intelligently.

AI-Moderated Reviews

Students submit reviews and SmartSuite Library automatically flags inappropriate content before it goes live. No manual moderation required - just peace of mind.

Asset Management

Manage laptops, iPads, kits, and peripherals alongside your collection. Track WiFi MAC addresses, warranties, depreciation schedules, and generate damage reports - all in one system.

ACARA-Sync & Reporting

Every book automatically mapped to the Australian Curriculum (Year 7–12). Hundreds of reports scheduled to email your principal and business manager on a cadence you set.

FSI Scholarship Program

Every FSI school can nominate a student for a scholarship.

We've awarded tens of thousands of dollars to students across Australia - for uniforms, textbooks, technology, camps, library hardware, and more. When your school is an FSI subscriber, your librarians and educators can nominate the students who need it most.

“Education is a right, not a privilege.” - We tithe a fixed percentage of our profits back to the education community that raised us.
