LAWRENCE LIVING LIBRARY RULES! 

 Reading is one of the most important skills your child will learn in school. Like all skills, improvement comes with practice, information, and enjoyment. You can help your child by reading to him/her and asking questions about the story. Encourage your child to spend time reading at home every day.

 • Pupils are responsible for handling library books with care, since they are for everyone to share. Please keep books away from pets, food and all liquids.

 • Any book damaged should be reported to the library as soon as possible.

 • Library books may be kept for two weeks, then must be returned. A book may be renewed if the pupil has not finished reading it. An overdue book means a pupil cannot borrow another book until the overdue book has been renewed or returned.

 • If a book is lost, payment towards a replacement will be requested from the parents.

 • If your family plans to move, please return all books before moving.

 • We hope your child will read and enjoy the many books on display in our library.
