When may my child check out books?

All students are encouraged to come to the library to checkout 
books anytime with teacher permission. Students may also check
out books independently before the tardy bell, or after school
with a parent.

We can not find a library book. Do we need to pay?

Books usually turn up, so we do not require payment until the end 
of the year. If you would like your child to resume checkout have
your child pick up a note for you to sign & return that says you
will pay at the end of the year if the book is not found.

What is the Adopt-a-book program?

Here's how it works:

1) Fill out a form indicating your desire to participate in the
Adopt-a-Book Program. (The forms go home at the beginning of the
year, but extras are in the library.) The cost is $20.


2) You or your child may select a brand-new book from our
collection in the library office. (These books have library
bindings and usually last longer than the ones you buy at a
bookstore.)

3) A special bookplate with the child�s name and year donated
will be added to the book, and a photo of your child will be
displayed on the bulletin board just outside the library.

4) Your child will be the first one to check out the book. This
will be above the number of books your child is allowed to check
out.

May parents check out books?

Yes, parents may check out up to 10 items.  We also have 
parenting books and audio books that parents may check out. Stop
by and we'll get you set up. You'll use your phone number as your
account number, so you will not need a library card.

What are honor books?

Honor Books are gently used paperbacks donated to the library 
that we offer students when they forget to return their regular
library books. These books are not checked out, but are
returned 'on your honor.'
