[ISLMA-Share] Drawing in book question

I would have to charge the full replacement fee.  I hate having books on our shelves with pen, marker, spills, etc.  I feel it sends the message to our readers that it is OK that our books are treated like that.😞

Since it has happened more than once, I would charge her the full replacement fee. I do tend to be harsh so they understand the consequences.

Good morning!

What would you do?

I have a student that has now returned her second library book within the past couple of months with writing/drawing with pen on the pages and/or on the inside of the front and back covers. Her little brother did it; this student is a Kindergartner. I gave her a warning last time. This time I know that I have to do something. The book is not destroyed. It is still readable, but it has pen randomly throughout the pages. Should I charge her the full replacement cost of the book or just a fine? Like $5.00? The book is "Christmas Mouseling" by Dori Chaconas and is now out of print.

Thanks for your advice!!
