Reading is a joy, privilege, and the right of every patron. As you select library books you will read, please understand that every book is not the best choice for everyone. If a book is unappealing or offensive in any way, please return it and select another. You, patrons, know better than we, the library staff, what library materials best serve you and your standards and beliefs.

Students are allowed to check out 3 books at a time. Books are due two weeks from the date they are checked out. Students are responsible for any books they check out of the library. Materials may be renewed at the library staff's discretion. If a student has a lost, damaged or has an overdue book they may not check out books until their lost or damaged fees are paid. Books are expensive - please take good care of them! Refunds are given if lost books are returned, and we encourage students to return found books.

All students must have a signed Acceptable Use Policy on file to use the computer. Computer privileges may be lost if using the library computers inappropriately. Please print only what is necessary. Internet printing is 10 cents a page.
