Borrowing Policy

 

1. The OAS Media Center maintains an open circulation procedure. Students may come at any time during the day to exchange books, however they must have their teacher’s permission to visit the library. Students also have time to exchange books during their weekly library lesson.

2. Students may not take out new books until previously checked out books have been returned.

3. If a book is lost or irreparably damaged, students must pay a fee to cover the cost of replacement. Hardcover books are $12.00, paperbacks are $5.00, and magazines are $3.00. Please make checks payable to “Cash”. Borrowing privileges will be re-instated upon receipt of payment for the lost or damaged book.
