Membership

Every student and member of Staff at Rosebank Primary is a member of the Library.  By borrowing books and materials they agree to return books on time and in a good condition.

Loan Periods

Students are allowed to borrow up to two books for a maximum of two weeks, and allowed to take these books home.  If they still require them after this period then they should be renewed for a further two weeks, provided that this book is not required by another student or staff member.

Staff are allowed to sign out a maximum of an agreed number of books for up to half a term.

Responsibility for Books

Each student or member of staff is responsible for books signed out on their name.

Overdue Library books

Once a month the Library staff will send out an overdue list to teachers.  We ask teachers to remind the students about these books.  After this, if books are still overdue we will send out a final notice slip to be sent home. 

If the book is lost or damaged, the person who is responsible for the book is liable, and will be asked to make a contribution to the cost of a replacement.
