Library policies

​

• Black and white printing is 5 cents per page, and color printing is 25 cents per page.

• All GHS behavioral expectations apply in the library.

• Please finish your food and drink outside of the library. Water is permitted, as long as it is not by the computers.

• Students must have a pass from a teacher to be in the library during class time.

• An ID card is required to check out books and to borrow textbooks for in-library use.

• As the name implies, the “quiet study room” is a place for study and quiet activities.

 

Textbook return and renewal policies

Students are responsible for textbooks and library books checked out to them. Library books are checked out for four weeks and incur a 5 cents-per-day fine, when they are overdue. Textbooks are checked out for one trimester.

 

All textbooks must be renewed or returned before the end of the trimester. If you have a “gap” trimester during trimester 2, you must return your book so it can be used by a student in the current trimester. If you have the class in adjoining trimesters, you simply need to renew your textbook. The only textbooks you need to bring to school to renew are world language books. The rest can stay at home and be renewed with your ID card.

 

Students who do not return or renew their textbooks or return library books in a timely manner should expect consequences. You may be excluded from school activities and purchasing parking permits. You may also be assigned after-school detention.

 

Students with late textbooks or library books will be immediately put on the “block list” for activities and parking permits. You will be mailed a notice if your textbooks or library books are late. You will then have a short window to take care of returning your books (date and time specified in the letter). If you do not return or pay for your book(s) by the specified date and time, you will be assigned detention until the book(s) are returned or paid for, while remaining on the block list.
