Library Policies

Checkouts

Students are permitted to check out a limited number of books over a two-week period. Each book may be renewed a maximum of one time, and all materials must be returned by the due date following the first renewal.

Placing a Hold

Students are allowed to check out a limited number of books for a two-week period. However, those with overdue books that have been overdue for more than one month will not be permitted to borrow any additional materials until the overdue items are returned. It is important to note that this policy does not apply to books required for class assignments.

Each book may be renewed only once, and all materials must be returned by the due date following the initial renewal.

Overdue and Damaged Book Notices

Overdue books that exceed one month will be prohibited from borrowing any additional materials until the overdue items are returned. It is important to emphasize that this policy does not pertain to books required for class assignments. 

Computer Usage

Chromebooks are regularly made available for the purpose of enhancing our online library collection and facilitating cataloging. Library material searches are exclusively intended for accessing available resources from Monument Academy and for locating items on the shelves. Students are required to comply with the Monument Academy acceptable use policy when utilizing the internet.

Student and Staff Conduct

Library policies are designed to ensure a productive and respectful environment for all patrons. These guidelines encompass procedures for entering and exiting the library, as well as designated seating areas and acceptable noise levels. By establishing clear expectations for behavior, the policies promote respectful interactions, a quiet learning atmosphere, and responsible use of library resources.

• Be respectful: Individuals should adhere to directions and communicate in a calm and quiet manner.
