Overdue/Lost Book
Policy:
If a student has one overdue
book, he/she may not take out another book until the
overdue one is returned. Students receive a first overdue
notice delivered to their classrooms when their book is
two weeks past the due date. They receive additional
overdue notices every two weeks after that. When a
student
has received three notices through school delivery and
the overdue book still has not been returned, the library sends a notice home
directly to the parents/guardians. The student is
offered three
possible solutions: (1) return the loaned book, (2)
replace or pay for the title (and the money will be
returned if the book is eventually found), or (3) donate a
book to the library. No student can take books out of the
library until the lost book situation is resolved.
