Common Expectations When Using the Media Center

►  Come to the Media Center with a pass from your subject teacher or activity teacher, which will be signed at the desk before you leave.

►  Come with an academic purpose in mind.

►  Overdue Materials are a hassle for you, the librarian and for others.  If you do forget to return library material you will be given a reminder.  Upon third notification, parents will be contacted.

►  Return materials to their proper place on the shelf or bring them to the desk.   If you don’t know where an item belongs, bring it to the main desk.  A misplaced book is a lost book! 

►  Should you misplace any Media Center materials you may continue to use the media center for class assignments.  However, you will not be allowed to sign materials out and remove them from our school after the materials you have are seven days overdue.  The misplaced items first must be returned or paid for.  Then your borrowing privilege will be restored.

►  Tampering with the barcode on a book will incur a charge of $1.00 as a replacement fee.

►  Each student will be issued a library card at the beginning of each school year.  Library cards are to be left in the Media Center and there will be a replacement fee for library cards that are taken from the Media Center or lost.

►  When you must pay for lost Media Center materials, full price is charged.

►  Removing items from the Media Center without checking them out will constitute theft and the student will be referred to the Vice-Principal.
