Answers
1)  Q When is the Library Media Center open?
A
The Library is open every day from 7:30-3:00. If we are closed due to classes scheduled into the library, it will be announced during the morning announcements
2)  Q Can I come to the Library from Work period?
A
Yes! Students may come to the Library from work period. There are two ways to sign out of work period. If you want to come to the Library for the entire period to do classwork, research or use a computer you will sign out on the long white pass in work period. If you only want to come to the Library to sign out a book and/or return a book, you may ask the work period teacher for a blue book pass.
3)  Q How many books may I sign out and how long can I keep them?
A
Students are allowed to have 3 books signed out of the library at a time. The normal loan period is 2 weeks. If you need a book for an extended period, you may renew the book as many times as needed.
4)  Q What happens if I lose my Library book?
A
We ask that you take good care of all Library materials and return them on time so others may borrow them. If you lose a book, come to the library staff and check to see if the book has been found. Sometimes people find books and return them to the library. If the book has not been returned, we ask that you check all of your classrooms. If the book can not be found, you will need to pay to replace the book.
5)  Q Are there computers I can use in the library?
A
The library has 24 computers for student/staff use. The 4 computers in front of the circulation desk are always set to OPAC. The computers in the lab area are available for student use. Please do not use the computers labeled for "Teacher Use". Please remember that the computers are to be used for school work only!
6)  Q May I stay in the Library period 10?
A
Most days the library is available period 10. We ask that you sign-up to stay in the Library, so we know how many students will be using the library. If you are a bus student, you must also sign up for the late bus by 1:30.
