 Welcome to the ISC Library Catalog (OPAC)

 Our library is more than just books: it’s a place to learn, explore, and enjoy reading.

🌟 Our Library Vision

The Islamic School of Canberra Library is a place of learning, creativity, and inspiration, guided by Islamic values. We aim to help students explore, question, and grow while building a lifelong love of reading and knowledge. Our library is a safe, welcoming space where curiosity is encouraged, and learning is connected to both faith and the wider world.

We believe that knowledge gives life to the soul and that hearts are the containers of its secrets — and the best hearts are those that preserve and live by what they learn.

Narrated Abu Huraira that the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said: “Whoever takes a path upon which to obtain knowledge, Allah makes the path to Paradise easy for him.”
