Library Policies

REMEMBER TO BRING THE FOLLOWING TO THE LIBRARY:

1.) Your planner!

2.) Your "inside voice"

General

  • Students are required to bring their planner with barcode in order to sign out library materials

  • Students are allowed to borrow one item at a time:

    • Books may be borrowed for a period of 2 weeks.

    • Magazines may be borrowed overnight.

  • Books are renewable for an additional 2 weeks.

  • Students are responsible for any materials checked out in their names.

  • Reference books may be used in the library only.

Overdue Materials

  • Students with an overdue book may not check out additional materials until the overdue book is returned.

  • Notices will be sent to students in Homeroom for overdue books.

  • Students with items overdue by one week or more days:

    • Will begin lunch detention in the library until the item is returned

or

  • Are required to pay for replacement if the book is lost/damaged beyond repair.

Lost Materials

  • Lost materials are charged the cost of replacing the item. In certain circumstances, students may provide a replacement book of the same title in the same binding (e.g. if the student lost a hardcover copy of a book, they provide a hardcover copy of the book as replacement, not paperback. See the librarian for more information.

  • Students who owe books to Wiley will not be allowed to borrow materials at Case Middle School until the books are returned/replaced or fines are paid to Wiley. Likewise, should students have any outstanding balances or overdue books when they move on to the high school, they will be asked to return or pay for the item signed out in their name at Case Middle School.

  • Minor repairs on materials will be performed as needed. However, students who have damaged items beyond repair will be expected to pay the replacement costs of the item or provide a replacement of the same title in the same binding.

Chromebooks etc.

  • If you are having problems with your Chromebook, bring your Chromebook to the library so it can be picked up by the IT team and fixed. Daily loans on Chromebooks and Chargers must be returned before you go home for the day.

  • If you need earbuds for schoolwork, you can buy a pair for $1 in the library as well.

  • Remember to pack your Chromebook into your bag (or set it next to the bag) the night before you are scheduled to be in school and plug it in to charge! If you do not have time to charge your Chromebook, bring the charger with you to school.
