FAQ

What is a Playaway?

A Playaway is an audiobook similar to an MP3 player. The entire novel is downloaded and recorded on the Playaway. Only students in

grade 3-5 have permission to check out one Playway at a time.

*A playaway permission form must be signed and returned to the library before a student is allowed to check out Playaways. If a student has an overdue book they may not check out a Playaway until their account is current.

Is there a fine for overdue books?

There is not a fine for over due books. Students may not check out additional books until overdue books are returned or renewed.

*Books lost or damaged must be paid for in the library.

How can we protect library books?

Water is the biggest culprit when it comes to damaged books and water damage can not be repaired.

Students in grades kindergarten through second will be given a heavy duty plastic bag at orientation to keep all school year. We strongly urge parents to remind their children to put their library books in the bag before placing them in their backpack - especially if they carry a water bottle and snacks in their backpack.

Other ways to protect books: Keep library books out of reach of younger children at home; keep

books away from pets - especially puppies; keep books inside away from food, water, dirt and rain.
