In our continually growing library we have books to meet everyone’s taste – every genre of fiction and non-fiction. Also, books that support continued professional development including maritime and language studies. Access to a recreational library is recommended by the Maritime Labour Convention. Recent research has proven that reading can encourage relaxation more than other activities and its benefits for helping combat loneliness and isolation are well documented.
At Marine Society we have experience in providing crew libraries for over 100 years and we’re convinced of the contribution books can make to the welfare of seafarers. The Digital Library app is the 21st century solution and has already been adopted by a number of major shipping companies.
