FAQ's (Frequently Asked Questions)
at the Thomas Harrison Middle School Library
What do I need to check out books?
Your student ID number. We can help you remember if you forget.
When can I come to the library?
You will come once a week with your Language Arts Teacher, but you may also come any other time you have a pass from your teacher.
How many books can I check out?
Three books at a time. You can trade them every day with a pass from your teacher if you like. You can also renew them several times if no one has them on hold.
Do you have comic books and graphic novels?
You bet! They are some of our most popular titles.
How can I find a book?
Our catalog is available online for you to check anywhere you have Internet access, or you may check on the catalog in the library. We are always happy to make suggestions and point you to some good reading materials!
How can I sign up to help in the library?
See us during the first 2 weeks of school to join the Library Helpers Club. We especially need people who walk or are dropped off in the morning.
Can I check out DVDs?
DVDs are reserved for use by teachers.
Do you charge fines for overdues?
No, but we do need you to return books and other items as soon as possible. Remember to renew your books! We do charge for lost or damaged materials.
Can I check out something for my best friend?
No. Items that you check out should be for your own use. If your friend has an overdue on his or her library account, encourage him or her to get that taken care of, but your library account is for you and YOU are responsible if your friend loses a book checked out in your name or turns it in late.
Why do you have such a wide range of reading material?
At THMS, we have students who are reading on all different levels, in a variety of languages, and with a wide variety of maturity levels. What appeals to a 10 year old reader may not appeal to a 14 year old reader, and vice versa. If you check out a book that makes you or your parents uncomfortable, simply return it and choose another.
