When do students come to the library to exchange books?

The Media Center is open every day from 7:30 to 3:00. Students may check out 
books during their scheduled weekly lesson in the library with Mrs. 
Williamson. Students may also exchange books at any other time the teacher 
allows them to come to the library.

When are the books due?

Books are due back to the library 1 week from the date they are checked 
out.  We do not stamp the due dates in the back of the books.  If students 
forget their library books, they will receive a "friendly reminder", an 
overdue slip, stating which books they still have checked out. Students may 
also renew their books if they are not yet finished reading them.

What do we do if a book becomes damanged?

If a book is damaged, please send a note along with the book stating what 
happened to the book. We will try to repair it. However, if it is beyond 
repair, we will send a letter home with the student, asking you to pay for 
the book. The money we receive will be used to purchase another copy of the 
damaged book.

What do we do if a book becomes lost?

If a book becomes lost, please send us a note letting us know. We will check 
in the library to see if it was returned. If not, we will send a notice home 
with the student, asking parents/guardians to pay for the lost book. The 
money we receive will be used to purchase another copy of the lost book. If 
the lost book is found at a later time, please contact us and we will refund 
your money.
