What should I do if I damage a book?

Ms. Kurth and Mrs. Hutchison are book doctors! If a book is damaged, it should be returned to the library so we can look at it. If it is still okay for the library, you will be able to check out new ones. If it ruined, you may have to pay for the book. If you pay for a book, you are able to keep it.

What if I forget my library books?

It's okay to forget once in a while! If you forget your books at home, you will choose a "look at" book to read during library time and check out new books next time.

How long can I keep a book?

All library books are checked out for two weeks. If you aren't finished with the book, you are welcome to renew it. Just bring the book with you to library so it can be checked out again.
