John Champe High School Library’s circulation guidelines are in compliance with the LCPS Library Policy Manual.
Books: Three weeks
Reference Books: Overnight
There is no limit to the number of books a student may check out at one time.
Items may be renewed as often as necessary. However, students will be asked to return a material at the next due date if it has been requested by someone else.
John Champe High School Library does not charge fines for overdue materials.
If students have overdue books, they are still allowed to check out additional items. The library sends regular overdue emails to the email addresses on file in Phoenix. They are reminded to return or to renew the items.
At the end of the school year a deficiency for overdue books will be issued and the return of or payment for the missing materials is expected before the last day of school.
All students can log in to our library catalog with their LCPS credentials to check their library account.
When a book is lost or damaged beyond repair, payment is to be made in the library. A receipt will be provided. Online payment is preferred.
You may also choose to pay by check, payable to JCHS, or cash, exact amount only. We do not have change.
When payment is received for a lost or damaged book, a replacement copy or similar item will be purchased as soon as possible. After payment is received, we will not reimburse the patron if the book is subsequently found and the replacement copy has been ordered.
