Ask the Librarian

  1. How many books can I take out?
  2. What happens if I forget my books on library day?
  3. What if I lose a book or my book gets damaged?



How many books can I take out?

I let each child take out the number of books that equals their 
grade:


3rd = 3 books
4th = 4 books
5th = 5 books
With each increase in grade level, you get more responsibility!

What happens if I forget my books on library day?

If you forget your books on your scheduled library day you cannot 
take out any books. That includes if you only bring back part of
your books (if you have 4 books out and only bring back
2).However, you may come the next morning and exchange your books
or you can wait until the next week and bring them then.

What if I lose a book or my book gets damaged?

When you take out library books, you are taking the 
responsibility for those books. If you lose them or they get
ruined they will need to be paid for or replaced. See Mrs.
Hauptmann for directions if this happens to you!
Remember: books like to hide! many times a "lost" book
is really just hiding in or under something. I have a list of
places to look.
