Promises, Promises! They Mean Something

Students couldn't believe what they saw with their own eyes...scribbling, bunny ears, unaligned spines, taped up pages, warped pages and even a torn cover. A basket full of promises unkept was presented to students during orientation. They learned that some of their favorite books like Pokemon and Bone have been damaged by students who did not take care of the books they borrowed.  Those books are no longer available to check out and students know that's a big" thumbs down."  This years book care promises will hopefully mean something now that they have seen that all students can suffer when books are not handled correctly.  All the signed library contracts will be our students way of saying they will make sure the books they borrow will return to the library in good shape.
