Circulation Policy 

Students at Vincent L. Triggs Elementary School have the privilege of checking out books from our school’s library.  Students may check out up to 3 books on their account*.  Books are checked out for the duration of a VTRIGS week.  For example: If your child checks out a book on “R” day, it is due the following “R” day.  If your child isn’t finished reading his/her book(s), it may be brought back and renewed up to 2 times*.  

Elementary students do not accrue late fees on their library accounts.  However, students will not be permitted to check out additional books, if they are at their account maximum of 3 books and all 3 books are overdue.  Students with books more than 2 TRIGS weeks overdue will begin receiving reminder notices until the book(s) is returned or the cost of replacing the book(s) has been paid.  Books that are returned severely damaged will also be assessed for repair/replacement costs.

*Students may be approved to check out additional books based on their classroom teacher’s requests, or additional information needs for a specific project.
Limitations on popular series titles may apply.

Library Agreement

Students must turn in a copy of the "Library Books Agreement" signed by a parent/guardian in order to check out books.  If we do not have a copy of your child's signed "Library Agreement," we will provide them with a hard copy for you to sign, or contact you via Class Dojo to request permission for your child to borrow books.
