FAQ’s and LMC Policy

When is the LMC open?
7:15am to 2:45pm Monday- Friday

Who can use the LMC?
Students are welcome anytime with a Library Media pass. A silent study hall is scheduled this year for Period A on maroon days only. Please be respectful and flexible regarding other activities that may be scheduled in the LMC from week to week.

A maximum of five students from any class or study hall may visit at one time. Classes/Groups are welcome to use the library with advanced notice.

Who can help me?
Mrs. Kupiec is alway happy to help assist in locating and evaluating appropriate print or web based materials for research or pleasure reading. She can also help with using the copier/printer located in the library or with other media equipment.

How long can I keep my library materials?
Books are checked out for (3) three weeks, videos or DVDs for (1) one week and magazines for (2) two days. Special due dates or reference materials (encyclopedias, dictionaries, etc.) may also be requested. Materials can be renewed once by email or in person (as long as no one else is waiting).

What happens if I don’t return library materials on time or lose them?
If materials are not returned within six weeks of the check out date, ten cents per day will added to a students library account. If the value of the material is reached in overdue charges, this total will be billed to the student’s school account.

Lost materials will be charged to the student’s school account for the full replacement value. A quality replacement will be considered in exchange,  only if presented within a reasonable amount of time (Amazon or eBay may be an affordable option versus book store pricing).

What behavior is expected in the LMC?
It is understood that the library is a place to quietly study, read, collaborate or use media to enrich and support the academic needs of all MA students.

The RSU#2 Student Internet Network Access & Acceptable Use Agreement and Monmouth Academy Code of Cooperation are followed when using technology in the LMC.

Headphones are allowed at an appropriate volume for the listener only.
Anyone not respecting the quiet study needs of other students will be asked to leave.
