Timothy EdwardsMiddle School

You can come to the TEMS LMC every morning starting at 7:45 through the second homeroom bell.  You can also come during a core class with a pass from your teacher.  Students can come down to the library media center once they've finished a test or quiz early and have some free time or for part of their W.I.N period.   You may also have an opportunity to come down as a whole class with a teacher.



Library Policies:

-Check out up to 3 items at a time.
-Check out 1 playaway or magazine at a time.
-Check out a playaway for a  period of TWO weeks and a magazine for ONE week. 
-Check out books for a THREE week period

-Renew all library materials by bringing them to Mrs. Longo in the library media center, unless they are on hold for another patron.

-See Mrs. Longo if you'd like to put a book that is currently checked out on hold.
-Once your hold comes in, I will send an email to your school Gmail account.
 -If a book, playaway or magazine is overdue, you will be sent an electronic overdue notice through your school G-mail account.  After this item is more than two weeks overdue, your parent/guardian will also receive an email.

-You are responsible for the replacement cost of any lost or damaged library materials.  You will be refunded if that item is found before a new copy of that book is ordered for the library. There are no late fees for late books, but please try your best to return them on time.  If you need them for a longer period, please bring your book to the LMC to be renewed.  You can renew your books as many times as you'd like, as long as they are not on hold for another student. 
Every Tuesday overdue e-mails are sent out to both students and the primary parent/guardian.  Students should be checking their Gmail accounts weekly for any communication in regards to these overdue library materials.
