Check-Out and Return Policies

• Students may check out books for 15 days with renewal if necessary.
• After 15 days, we allow 2 free days without fines.
• On the 3rd day, fines begin to accrue at the rate of .05 per book per day until the book is returned.
• If a book is returned late and has accrued fines, the fine stops but does not go away until it is paid.
• If a student is not able to pay a fine, they need to speak to the Librarians about alternate forms of payment; usually community service or food pantry donation.
• Overdue notices are printed every 2 weeks and delivered to classrooms.
• Students with books overdue more than three weeks will attend lunch detention. If necessary, other consequences are utilized to ensure books are returned to the library.
• Money collected from fines is used to repair and/or replace lost or damaged books.

Please note that overdue policies are included in the student planner and posted in the Library.
