Borrowing

  • Parents and guardians are welcome to check out books and other materials.
    The first week of school students may check out one book.
    After returning that book, limits will be extended to:

    • 3 books at a time for Kindergarten
    • 5 books at a time for 1st & 2nd graders
    • 8 each for 4th-8th graders

    We do not charge fines for late books but require users to return them as soon as possible so that others may enjoy them.

  • Close-up of a wooden display with colorful, handmade decorations.

    • After 2 weeks overdue notices are automatically emailed to parents.
    • Returned books should be fed to Cosmo, our Book Monster. 
    • Contact library staff for renewals.
    • Best option: Replace with a copy of the missing title, in good or better condition.
    • Next best: Give replacement funds to our Secretary in the main office.
    • Still good: Donate another children's book, in good or better condition, to the library.

    Whatever option you choose, please inform library staff of your choice so that accounts can be updated.
