Re: [LM_NET] Parents check out books

[Lisa Hunt <lisa3moon@YAHOO.COM>]

I have checked out to parents for many years.  It's an "unadvertised service" in my 
library.  I don't go around telling everyone and it isn't an official policy.  
However, when a parent asks I am always happy to accomodate.  I have never had 
trouble getting books back from the parents and they check out books for many 
different reasons.  It is good PR and works well for me.

Subject: Parents check out books

Our school will begin checking out books to parents in our PreK-8 school library.  
We have a parent shelf, also.  Kindergarden students must return their book before 
checking out another book.  Has anyone experienced a parent checking out books 
because their child forgot to return their book?  I am concerned about the child's 
responsibility for returning the book.  

Thank you
