Library Hours: Monday-Friday 8:00am-3:00pm

Courteous behavior is expected at all times.

Food and drink are not allowed in the library.

In the company of a parent or caregiver students are welcome to visit the library after school from 2:15-3:00 Monday-Tuesday and Thursday-Friday (Wednesday afternoon is set aside for meetings).

The library staff does not provide after school supervision for students waiting for a sibling to be dismissed.      

Students visit the library once a week with their class to listen to a story, practice library skills, and check out books.  In addition, students in grades 3-5 may visit the library every day during first recess to read, do research, or relax.

Kindergartners check out one book to remain in the classroom; first graders check out one book which they may take home; second graders may check out two books; third graders may check out three books; fourth graders may check out four books; and fifth graders may check out five books.

Books are due back the following week, or may be renewed for an additional week as long as no one has requested the title.  Books must be returned in order to check out more items. 

Overdue notices are sent out periodically via the Tuesday Envelope.  While there is no fine for overdue books, if a book is lost or damaged it must be paid for.  Students who owe money to the library risk losing the privilege of borrowing more materials and will not receive their final report card.   The replacement cost of the book is quoted on the overdue notice.  Please pay with exact cash or with a check made out to MBUSD.  Send the payment to school in an envelope marked "Library."  The payment will be refunded if a lost book is found and returned during the current school year.
