Dear all,
I am still missing 60 library books!
Thanks to those that have turned in books and those that are still looking.
Please, encourage your child to turn in missing books. I would hate for them to have to pay for a book that is playing hide and seek.
For those that have asked, fines can be paid on ParentVue. Neither I nor the secretaries will be accepting cash for books. See flyer for a step-by-step process on how to pay fines.
Disclosure, once a book is paid for, there are no refunds if the book happens to be found.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Thank you.
Mrs. Berry
Columbia Librarian
