The Storytime Station is a mobile book display unit designed for classrooms, libraries and reading corners. Fixed powder-coated white display shelves present books face-on for easy browsing, while generous storage below accommodates large-format books up to A2 size. Available in a single-sided or double-sided configuration, it can be placed against a wall or used as a room divider to create a dedicated reading nook.
• Fixed display shelves present books face-on for independent browsing
• Large storage bay below accommodates books up to A2 size
• Available in single-sided or double-sided configuration
• Mobile on 50mm wheel castors, two braked
• Optional whiteboard or pinboard back panel
• Suitable for use as a soft room divider
The Storytime Station brings book collections to life by presenting titles face-on in fixed display shelves, making it straightforward for students to browse, select and return books independently. The generous storage bay below the display shelves accommodates large-format picture books, big books and resources up to A2 size, keeping the teaching environment tidy without sacrificing accessibility.
Its mobile design, with 50mm wheel castors and two braked, gives teachers the flexibility to reposition the station as learning needs change. Against a wall it creates a dedicated reading corner; moved into the centre of the space it becomes a soft divider that helps define a quiet reading nook or breakout area.
Schools that require access to books from both sides of the unit can choose the double-sided configuration, which adds a second set of display shelves to the reverse and increases the unit depth from 580mm to 730mm. An optional whiteboard back panel or pinboard in Keylargo Zinc fabric can be added to the single-sided configuration to create an additional small-group teaching surface on the reverse.
