Borrowing Library Materials

Borrowing Library Items

The loan period is 10 school days (2 weeks). Limit: 3 items per student. When students have multiple research projects, they can request to borrow additional items.

Renewals

You may come to the library to renew if you need additional time, or renew online by following the directions on this page. Please bring your items to the library when renewing. You can also email Mrs. Steever and ask her to renew your library items.

You may not borrow if...

You have an overdue book.

Lost Books and Magazines

Students must pay the cost of replacing lost or damaged materials before borrowing additional items.

Notices

Check your school email address and/or "My Info" in your library account to check for due dates, overdues, fines, and hold status. Overdue notices are emailed weekly, and ready hold notices are emailed on the day that the item arrives.

Interlibrary Loan

As a member of the RILINK consortium, the EGHS Library follows the consortium-level Interlibrary loan policy that is posted on the RILINK Website.

Class sets for Teachers

It is often possible to get class sets of books through Inter-library loan. If you would like to get a class set of books, please check with me to see if there are enough copies of the title available throughout the RICAT system. If enough copies are available, please give me a copy of your class list, and I will request a book for every student. Please plan in advance, as it usually takes about two weeks for all of the books to arrive.
