Parent/Student
Book Responsibility
As parents, once your child checks out a library book, you are accepting
the responsibility to help them care and return the book in the proper
manner. If damage and/or loss occurs while checked out in your child's
name, you are responsible for paying the fines or replacement cost
of the book. Form available requesting only paperback book checkout
for students.
Number
of books a student can check
out
Students may check out 1 book at a time to take home. In special
instances, however, a teacher may reserve some books for students
to use. These books are then checked out in the teacher's name.
Length
of Circulation
The circulation period is one week. Most reference materials
do not circulate.
Overdues
The
library staff will run weekly lists on the day each class is scheduled
for book check out. We do not charge a daily overdue fine, however,
if your item becomes overdue we will restrict your checkout privileges.
Damaged
Books/Fines
Students
will be required to pay for any lost or damaged books. We will perform
minor repairs on books as needed. Patrons who have damaged books beyond
repair will be charged the replacement cost of the book. Checkout
privileges are restricted until costs are paid.
Refunds
Patrons
that find books they have paid for will be issued a refund. This usually
takes four to six weeks.
Moving
& End of School Year Procedures
Students
that move during the school year must be cleared in the library (no
books out or fines/replacement book costs paid) and then Den staff
will sign the Withdraw Form. Students not cleared at the end
of a school year will have their report card held until matters are
handled.
