Dear Parents
DBIS Library – SUMMER LENDING PROGRAMME
In a bid to reduce summer reading loss (the decline in children's reading development that can occur during summer vacation times when children are away from the classroom), the library is pleased to announce details of a Summer Lending programme:
- Secondary school students will be able to borrow up to 5 library books for the duration of the Summer break.
- Lending will take place in the final week of school, between Monday 24th June and Friday 28th June, after which the library will be closed until school resumes in August.
- This program is available to secondary students confirmed to be returning to DBIS for the 2019-20 school year and who do not have any outstanding loans.
- All items borrowed under the Summer Lending programme must be returned to the library no later than Friday 16th August.
- In order to take part in the Summer Lending Programme secondary students must have their parents complete the attached form.
- Parents/guardians accept that if any book is damaged or lost over the course of the Summer, they are eligible for the replacement cost plus a $30 administrative fee per book.
Please note, that in order to give staff the opportunity to take stock of the library collection prior to the start of our Summer Lending programme, all lending will be suspended between Monday 17th June and Friday 21st June.
Feel free to contact the library should you have any questions.
