Library Fees

The district is required by law to collect money in payment for willful or negligent damage or loss of textbooks and instructional materials (California Administrative Code, Title 5, Section 9502).  The parent/guardian of a student shall be liable for district property on loan to the student and not returned upon demand of a district employee authorized to make the demand (Education Code 48904).  Any person who willfully retains any print or non-print library material, or other property belonging to the district, for thirty days after written notice is given upon expiration of the normal loan period, is guilty of a misdemeanor (Education Code 19911).

Library & Textbook Fines

Library and textbook fines and current replacement costs are determined by the Superintendent or designee.  Decisions about alternatives to restitution must be determined by the principal or administrative designee.  Fees not paid within 60 days of notice are referred to collection under the name of the parent/guardian.

Fee Schedule

Refunds for found materials are subject to a $5.00 processing fee.  At the expiration of one year, the fee paid for a lost book is forfeited.
