Book Care Rules
Here are some suggestions for keeping our library books in great condition:
- Keep books away from food or drinks; be careful with your water bottles! If your backpack has a side pocket, place your water bottles there and not inside with your books.
- Wash hands before reading a book.
- Report all damages to Mrs. Longo for proper repair.
- Use a bookmark for saving your place in a book instead of folding the pages. I have lots of bookmarks; please ask for one if you need one.
- Never use a writing utensil as a bookmark.
- Do not turn a book on its face; this can damage the binding.
- On rainy days, be sure books are in plastic bags or in backpacks.
- Keep books away from small children and pets.
- Don't write in your library book.
- Do not pull labels and/or stickers off the books.
