School library suppliers list

The School library suppliers list is designed to provide staff in New Zealand school libraries with a quick guide to suppliers of a wide range of items, ranging from things you use every day to major capital purchases such as library furniture or shelving.

We haven’t listed every local agent for any given business, as you can obtain that information from the contact details provided. You may also find local suppliers who are not included on this list.

The contents are arranged in alphabetical order, and outline the range of broad product areas we have included. Where relevant, in some sections there is a brief summary of what is included - for instance, under Signage you will find suppliers of vinyl lettering and other labelling products. The Sundries / general section has a wide range of products from book easels to cordless headsets.

Some businesses offer a wide range of library products, and these will be listed in the chart wherever that company appears.

The Suppliers list includes:

  • Barcode labels
  • Barcode readers and scanners
  • Borrower cards / ID cards
  • Dewey Decimal Classification - Abridged Edition
  • Dewey posters
  • Furniture and furnishings
