Question: How many books may I checked out at one time?
Answer: You may have between 1-3 books for enjoyment reading at any given time, depending on grade and your status as a library patron. This does not include textbooks, classroom novels (books you're reading in class, or other books/materials to support your in classroom studies, projects, etc.)
Question: How long may I have a book out for?
Answer: Book loans are for two (2) weeks.
Question: How will I know when to bring back my book(s)?
Answer: There are two ways to find out when your book is due. First, locate the Due Date slip in the inside front cover (or sometimes on the second page) of your book. The date is stamped on the due date slip and will be the last, and most current date logged. Second, review your library record using the steps above for Review Your Library Record and take note which books you have out and when to bring them back. This might also be a good time to renew your materials if you want to keep them longer.
Question: How many times may I renew my library books?
Answer: You may renew your library materials two (2) times. Exceptions are when someone else has the item on hold, or you have a classroom novel or textbook checked out. Those items cannot be renewed. If you have trouble renewing your items, or you have exceeded the two-renew limit, email Mrs. Ross (rross@mvwsd.org) if you want to extend your loan further.
