Library Policies

Welcome to G.R.A.I.S. Library Media Center!  The library is a great source for research and finding books to read for enjoyment.  Here are some guidelines that will help keep our library media center a place where all students and staff can feel comfortable visiting, reading, studying, and researching.


Visiting the library

Students and staff are welcome to use the Library between 8:35 and 2:55. 

During the school day students may use the library during their scheduled class time.  Classes are scheduled once every four days.   During class instruction is provided on library and information use, the research process, digital citizenship, and media literacy.  Students are also given time and encouraged to borrow books from our extensive library collection.


Book Check-out

Students and staff may check out 3 books at a time for a 2 week period.  Exceptions can be made if material is needed for class assignments.  Books may be renewed 2 times as long as no one else is waiting for them.  

Overdue notices will be distributed periodically.  Students and staff may not check out more books if they have overdue items.  Students and staff are responsible for paying for or replacing lost or damaged material that they have not returned by the end of the school year.

Please handle books and materials with care while you are borrowing them.
