Hi,
I'm in a K-5 building.
· How many books can be checked out at a time? K- one book, 1-5 can
have three. Like everyone else if they need a book for a project it
doesn't count against them.
· What is the maximum number of books that can be checked out
simultaneously? Three, plus any project books.
· How long is the checkout period (e.g. 1 week, 2 weeks, undefined)?
The standard checkout length is two weeks, indefinite for project books or
class sets of novels.
· How many times can a student renew a book? Generally as many as is
needed. After the initial renewal it does become a case by case basis
though. If the book is on hold I won't renew it again, and for certain
students I would want to see the book before allowing the second renewal.
· Do you allow a Hold to be put on a book? Yes.
