Students may check out the following number of items:
Kindergarten: 1 item the first 9 weeks, increasing to 2 items
First Grade: 2 items.
Second Grade: 2 items
Third Grade: 3 items
Fourth Grade: 4 items

Items available for checkout include books, magazines, selected reference
items and audiocassette kits. All materials are due one week after checkout.
Check-In Procedures
Items may be returned to the library by placing them in the tub provided
in each grade level area. These returns will be collected daily and
checked in. Also, students may return items to the book drop in the
library.
Renewals
Students may renew items by bringing them to the checkout desk. Items
must be present to be renewed. There is a maximum of two renewals for
an item.
Overdues
Students with overdue items may not check out additional items until
all items are returned. Overdue lists are printed and distributed to
classroom teachers every other week.
Lost and Damaged Books
If a book or other item is lost or damaged, the librarian will determine
the repair or replacement cost and send home a note with the student.
Payments may be made by cash or check and should be made out to Wells
Elementary School. If a lost item is later found, the student will receive
a refund letter. A parent must sign this letter and return it to the
librarian or office manager in order to receive the refund.
The library will hold books for one day for a student with an unresolved
issue. If the student does not return to resolve the issue, the books
will be reshelved. We do not reserve books in advance that are already checked out to other patrons.
