Library
Rules, Procedures and
Fines
The high school library media center is available to students
throughout the school day. Students may secure library
passes from their study hall teacher. Reference passes
are obtained from the subject teacher. Subject teachers
sign the student's agenda book. The agenda book must be
co-signed by the librarian or the library aide prior to
the student reporting to study hall.
Computers
are to be used for educational purposes only. No student
is permitted to make changes to any computer desktop,
its settings, or its appearance, play games, cards,
send or retrieve email, stream video, or download music
or programs as listed in the Acceptable Use Policy
of the Oley Valley School District. Students are expected
to follow all guidelines listed in the Acceptable Use
Policy. The use of the Internet is for educational
purposes only. Reference books, periodicals, and pamphlets
circulate overnight and may be renewed. Materials for
curriculum activities are placed on reserve and have
limits placed on their circulation. Students may borrow
as many as fifteen books; however, they are requested
to be considerate of other patron needs. Students are
responsible for all library materials. Fines are charged
for overdue materials. Overdue notices are sent to
students weekly. Restrictions on library access are
placed on patrons who have not cleared their library
debt by the end of each quarter. Students are responsible
for all lost or damaged materials. Volunteer student
assistants provide an invaluable service to the student
body and to the library staff. Interested students
should contact the librarian at the beginning of each
semester. Orientation is given to all incoming freshmen.
Library instruction is offered to students as the need
arises and is integrated with class assignments.
