How Many
Books Can
I Take Out?
  • Students in Grades 1-6 may take out 3 books at a time.
  • Students in Kindergarten may take out 2 books at a time.
  • For all students, all books must be returned before any new books can be taken out of the library. This promotes responsibility, reduces loss and encourages students to finish reading their books.
  • Teachers may take out an unlimited number of books and may also take out books on a student's behalf.
  • Students are allowed to take out additional books if they are for a school assignment or project.
  • Students' books are checked out for one week.
  • They are due back the following week during their regular library period. 
  • Books can be renewed any number of times unless someone else has put a hold on them (see next question).

Can I Renew My Books?
  • Students may renew one or more of their books unless they have been requested for hold by another student or teacher.
  • In that case, the book(s) must be given up at your next regular library class.
  • Students are to bring ALL their library books to school on their library day, even if they want to renew one or more of them.
  • A book can be renewed twice without question if the book is present with the student.
  • Students wishing to renew books two or more times will need to talk to their teacher or the library technician to determine if the book is at a level of difficulty too high for them (an easier one should be chosen), they have lost interest in the book (another should be chosen) or the student simply needs more time to finish the book (renewal will be granted).
  • Students should be choosing books that can easily be read within two weeks.
