Berkley Street Media Center - Policies & Procedures

The Collection

The Berkley Media Center has a large selection of items that relate to the curriculum and reading needs of students and teachers grades K-5. All materials are selected according to criteria relating to the appropriateness of content and the durability.

Student Book Exchange

The normal check-out period for students is two weeks. Students will have book exchange on a bi-weekly scheduled basis. Students in grades K-5 will check out one book at a time. All books must be returned during their scheduled library time before another book may be borrowed.

Overdue Books

When a student has an overdue book he or she cannot check out another book from the library until the overdue book is returned. If a child has an overdue book it will result in no additional check outs until the overdue book is returned. No fines are charged for overdue books.

Lost or Damaged Books

The full replacement cost will be charged for any lost materials. Until the lost book is paid for it will be treated like an overdue book. Books not returned or paid for by the end of the school year will cause your child's report card to be held by the office. If a book is damaged while checked out to a student, a charge will be made to cover the cost of repairing the book. If the book is beyond repair, it will be treated like a lost book and full replacement cost will be charged.
