[ISLMA-Share] Due Date Cards

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

At the preK-8 building I am in...I do not do due date cards at all. I see
each class once a week and they know books are due back the following week.
The older kids know they have two weeks before renewal is needed. I am solo
in this building and time is limited. I do send notices once in awhile but
so far it has worked fairly well. I do not get too many that do not return
books. I also have an incentive/management system in place that helps with
this as well. Feel free to email me if you have any specific questions I
might be able to help you with.
