Library Etiquette Speak in a whisper voice Food, gum, candy, and drinks are NOT allowed Use your time appropriately. It should take around 10 minutes or less to locate and check out a book. Return items to their proper location. If you are not sure where a book goes, ask Mrs. Slosky to help you. Please do not push books to the back of the shelf; they need to stay forward. Form a line and wait your turn to check out a book. If you are not looking for or checking out a book, wait in the sitting area by the doors. Do not stand in the aisles and talk.

Please DO NOT push books to the back of the shelves.  YES 

Care of Books Remember, library books belong to Altadeña. If a library book or textbook is lost or damaged, the student and his/her family will be asked to pay for the replacement. While the library book is at home, please choose a safe place to keep it when it is not being read. Keep books up high, out of reach of pets. Keep your books inside a zipped backpack when you are not reading. That way, it is protected, and will be with you when it is time to return the book. Do not put books in your backpack with a water bottle. Water damage is the biggest reason books get damaged.
