Cynthia Mann’s Library Policy

Cynthia Mann’s School Library serves its students and staff with over 18,000 books, magazines, and media materials.  Each week, all students, grades 1 through 6 have a 30 minute scheduled library time.  Kindergarten students visit the library once a week for 20 minutes.  During our library time we may read short books or novels, learn library skills and/or enjoy library related games.

At the beginning of the school year, and as new students enroll at Cynthia Mann, we review and agree to follow the rules of the library (see web page).  Each student is responsible for all items checked out in their names.  If you lose or damage a book due to neglect, you will be charged a replacement fee for the book.  

One of your child’s responsibilities in library is to return their books on time. Items are checked out for one (1) week but may be renewed.  Consequences for students who fail to return books on time may result in the loss of a recess.   Students who frequently forget to return books on time could be assigned detention.

After 30 days a book is considered lost and you will be responsible for a replacement fee.  If the book is not returned or fine paid, your child’s report card can be held at the front office by the principal.  If at anytime the book is found after a fine is paid, we will gladly refund the fine money.  If you have any questions…. Check out Cynthia Mann’s Library web page or contact Mrs. McKenzie, Cynthia Mann’s Librarian at 854-4680.

The library is for the enjoyment of everyone.  Use good manners and be considerate of others.  

Remember to try to read at least 20 minutes every day.
