  14. Scheduling (continued) • Please verify that sufficient resources are available before scheduling in the media center • Limit groups to four members • Two classes may be scheduled during non-lunch periods.

  15. Sending Students to the Media Center Students must sign in and sign out. Please send no more than two students from a class to do research. Send students on a written pass or use the agenda book (owner only). Indicate on the pass the student’s first and last name, the assignment to be completed and a return time if student is to return to class.

  16. Sending Students (continued) Sign your first and last name on the pass. Do not write passes for students who are not doing an assignment for you. Do not send student volunteers to sit in the media center. Subs may not send students to the media center (Note this in your lesson plan).

  17. Teachers have unlimited checkouts for books and DVDs for as long as needed. Check DVD’S out at the desk to avoid setting off the security alarm. Return items as soon as you are finished with them so others may use them. Teachers are responsible for any lost or damaged materials. Teachers may request that books related to a current class assignment be pulled and placed on “Reserve” for their classes. Checking Out & Reserving Materials
