Welcome to the Somerset Elementary Library Media Center (LMC)
Our Mission is to provide students and staff access to information in a variety of formats for instructional and leisure purposes and to provide instruction which fosters competence in the effective use of these materials.
Flexible Schedule
Students visit the LMC once a cycle for a 55 minute lesson on technology, library skills and book checkout.
LMC Open Checkout
Each child may visit the library in the morning before 8:15am to obtain new library books.
Student Check out Privileges
PreKindergarten students can check out 1 book at a time.
Kindergarten-4th grade students can check out 3 books at a time.
2nd-4th graders are also allowed to check out 1 magazine.
Overdue Materials
All materials are checked out to students for two weeks. Overdue notices are sent home with each student monthly if needed. There is no fine for overdue materials. However, check out privileges can be suspended until overdue materials are returned.
Lost/Damaged Materials:
If a material is lost or damaged beyond repair, the replacement value is asked of the patron so the item can be replaced. The value of the item will be determined by the library media specialist based on current prices. The patron will be encouraged to use the LMC materials but borrowing privileges may be suspended.
