Elementary School Library Rules
How many books are students allowed to borrow at once? Kindergarten and Grade One：Children are allowed to borrow one book a week．Grade Two and Up：Students in Grade Two and up are allowed to borrow two books a week．
How long is the loan? Books are loaned for about a week，however the school is on a 5-day cycle．Books are due on the cycle day．A book borrowed on Day 1 is due on the next Day 1，even if it is not the same day of the week．A book borrowed on Tuesday may be due on a Wednesday，if there is a holiday between when the book is borrowed and when it must be returned．
May I renew my book? Our computer system does not allow us to renew books，so they must be returned and checked out again．We ask students to return their books at the beginning of the day with their bookmark／library card inside and sticking out．We will check the book in and put it aside for the student to get when he returns with his class．
How much is the fine if I return a book late? There are no fines for children in grades K-6．However students who have an overdue book may not borrow another book．
If I have the right to borrow two books and I have returned one，may I take out another book?
If the book you have left at home is not yet overdue，you may take out another book．However，if it is overdue，you will not be allowed to take out another book．
What happens if I lose a book?
If you lose a book，we will give you time to look for it．
Some good places to look for books：
On your bookshelf，but placed upside down or backwards
In another basket in the classroom
Under a bed
Under a sofa or chair or cushion
Behind the couch
In your locker or school bag
If you can't find the book，we will ask you to pay for it．Since it will probably cost more to replace the book than we originally paid，we will charge you the full replacement cost，including tax and other costs． |
