General Questions
Who checks out books at Center Woods?
Grades 1-3 are checking out books and can bring them home. Please find a safe place for your library books for when they visit your home. Books are checked out for about two weeks and should be returned by the time students get to their music rotation. Kindergarten will be checking out books this year, but they will not be going home.
What happens if I can't find my book?
Little brothers and sisters, cats and dogs, chocolate milk and juice are the bane of a library book. But it happens. We do not panic about a missing book. They tend to show up and sometimes with student helpers books get misplaced for awhile. If a book is truly lost, then it should be paid for so that the library can replace it. Refunds are given if a book does show up.
