Books are commonly checked out during library periods and must be returned within 3 weeks. If books are not returned, and the maximum number of checkouts is reached, a student may not check out more books until they have returned their previous one(s).

Students are responsible for their library books and textbooks.
Books are considered lost if not returned after one month. Students may not sign out new materials until lost books are found or paid for.
Damaged books (liquid, pen, crayon, ripped pages) must be shown to the Librarian to determine if the book can be repaired or paid for. Please do not try to fix books at home, as we have special materials to repair the damage.
Be book aware. Do not share your library book with others. Do not place your book in your backpack beside your water bottle or on damp surfaces. Avoid tearing or writing on pages. Consider keeping your library book in a plastic book bag to keep it safe until you can return it.
Enjoy reading your books!
If you have a problem, let the Librarian know about it so that we can figure it out together.
