Frequently Asked Questions

You can have up to 10 items checked out at a time. If you want to check out more books, please bring back your old books!

There is a book drop right beside the library entrance on the inside. Drop the books you want to return through the slot and they will be checked in/returned by the end of the day (as staffing permits).

All books have a loan period of 3 weeks, except for graphic novels/manga, which have a loan period of 1 week.

Come to the library and ask to put the book on hold. Whenever it comes back to the library, library staff will set it aside for you. In extraordinary circumstances, library staff can request the book from a different school library in the district. We also recommend checking your local public library for availability!

Depends on when the book is returned! Regular loan periods are 3 weeks, so you at most will get it in 3 weeks, unless the student who has it checked out fails to return it on time. 

Please note: Students cannot graduate without a cleared library record!

If you lost or can't find your library book, you have 3 options:

1. Return the book. (search all over your house and other places you frequently go to. Double check your classrooms)

2. Repay the lost book fine. Please come see a library staff member for this option.

3. Replace the book. Replacement copies must be similar to the original (ex. if a book is a Young Reader's edition, get the Young Reader's edition),  hardcover (unless it's manga), AND in new condition. You can order from any vendor you like, as long as the requirements are met.

Yes! Please exchange your ID card for a textbook. Library textbooks must stay in the library.

In most cases, yes. If an item is a regular book (so not graphic novel/manga) AND has no holds on it, it can be renewed for another 3 weeks. Books with holds on it and graphic novels/manga cannot be renewed.
