Circulation & Fines Policies
These policies are for students only. Faculty and staff have less restrictions.
Limits: Up to three items at a time for two weeks may be checked out from the Library. Titles already circulating can placed on hold and when a patron returns a copy, the student waiting for the book will receive notice via mymail and the book will be held at the front desk for a week. Some materials may not be checked out or have holds or limitations (oversized books and magazines for example). All books, except Manga, may be renewed for checkout up to three times, unless a hold request by someone else intercedes.
Fines: We no longer charge late fees, unless the book is overdue a year. Lost or damaged materials will be charged per the policy document below. Before graduating, seniors must resolve all their unpaid balances. We only accept cash. The Library is not equipped to accept any other form of payment.
The Full policy is in PDF below.
Old Books: Books and fines due to prior schools within the District can be resolved here. Bring the books to the NAHS library and pay the fines to us. We can clear them in Destiny, and will get them back to their home school.
Textbooks: The Library does not oversee textbooks or assigned novels, although they do show in Destiny, because we use the same system. Questions about textbooks should go to the main office.
Book care: A lost or ripped book jacket (aka dust cover) for a hardcover book is damage to the book. Wet, warped or ripped pages are also considered damaged.
