All OCHS students may check out 4 books at a time. The checkout length is 20 school days. In addition to books, students may check out one periodical (magazine) along with books. You may also check out Playaways or audio books. Reference materials may also be checked out, but the checkout length is overnight.
Students are responsible to return library materials in the same condition as they were in when checked out. If a library material is damaged, a fee will be assessed, up to the price of replacing the book. The white card placed in the pocket of the library book or other material is not just paper. If it is missing when the material is returned, a $.25 fee will be attached to the student's account. If the white card is located and returned to us, the fee is returned.
If library materials are returned late, a fine of $.05 per day is assessed. The fine continues until the book is returned. If a reference book is overdue, the fine is $.25 per day. If the book is lost, then the student is responsible for paying to replace the material. Some books and materials are quite expensive.
Overdue notices are email to student email accounts on Monday mornings. Please either check your email, login to Destiny, the library program, or check with library staff if you have questions about materials checked out in your name. Also, paper copies of overdue notices are given to your English teachers twice a month to hand out. Please return library materials when they are due (stamped on the pocket in the back of the book) to avoid overdue fines. We realize that sometimes there are computer errors, so help us check if you think you have returned a book, but the notice says you haven't.
