Borrowing Items
​Borrowing privileges are granted to all students and staff. Students may have up to 5 items checked out at any given time, provided that they have no outstanding books/fees. In order for a maximum number of students to have access to these books, we ask that you return them promptly at the end of the loan period. Students will receive periodic reminders about overdue books.

Renewing Items
Provided there are no holds on books, you may renew books you have checked out once for an additional 5 weeks. You can do this through the online catalogue or come in to the library.

Placing Holds
A hold places you on a waiting list for an item if it is not currently available. You can place a hold online or through a teacher-librarian. We will email you when you hold  is available for pick up. You have 5 days in which to pick up your requested item at the circulation desk.

Returning Books
Our book drop is located in the hallway outside the library entrance. There is also a book drop in the WVSS South Campus office.

Fees
There are no late fees.
Lost or non-returned books will be charged at replacement cost. A cost assessment will be made for damaged books. Please speak with the library staff should you have any concerns about the condition of your borrowed material. 
Payment will made through School Cash Online.
