The Bowne Munro Media Center has the following policy toward borrowing: 1. Students in grades K-2 have a one week borrowing period. Students in grades 3-5 have a two week borrowing period. Please have your child return library books in a timely manner in order to share our collection with the whole school. 2. Although the media center does not charge late fines, I encourage you to have your child renew his or her books if he/she would like to keep them for longer than the two week period. Any book that is lost will be charged its replacement value. ($12.00) Following is a grade by grade listing of book borrowing limits: Kindergarten: 1 book per week for no longer than 1 week without renewal 1st Grade: 1 book per week for no longer than 1 weeks without renewal 2nd Grade: 2 books per week for no longer than 1 weeks without renewal 3rd Grade: 2 books per week for no longer than 2 weeks without renewal 4th Grade: 3 books per week for no longer than 2 weeks without renewal 5th Grade: 3 books per week for no longer than 2 weeks without renewal Borrowing books for special projects such as research or SDL will be done as a class and will not be reflected in individual student accounts
