The Instructional Media Center (IMC), centrally located in the high school, will provide resources and services relevant to instruction, promote technology, foster an interest in reading, and encourage the development of lifelong information skills.

Studest may use the IMC before and after school, and during study halls for quiet study, reading and research.  There are two computer areas that are available to students for school-rated projects only.  Computers are not to be used for game playing or for listening to music during school hours.

Study hall students who wish to use the IMC for study hall should report directly to the IMC.  IMC staff will maintain a peaceful atmosphere and students should respect the rights of others by studying or reading quietly. It is not a place of social visiting.  The IMC staff has the right to send students back to study hall or class, if there is an overflow of students or for discipline jproblems.

Library Procedures:

Books: Books are checked out for a two week period and renewable if needed.  Fines are assessed at $.05 per day, per item with a one day grace period.  Only days that school is in session are counted towards a fine.  If a book, is unavailable students may place a reserve on the item.  The IMC will notify the student when the item becomes available.

Magazines: Current issues are on display racks and can only be read in the IMC.  If an article is needed from a current issues, a copy can be made by the IMC staff.  Magazine back issues are available for check out for two weeks.  The same fines apply as books.

Reference Material:  Items may be taken to the classroom only with permission and must be returned at the end of the hour.  Items may also be checkout overnight at the end of the school day but must be returned before classes start the following day.

Teacher Reserved Material:  Teachers may reserve a limited number of books for an assignment.  In some cases these books may only be used in the IMC.  With permission from the teacher, these books may be allowed to be check out overnight but need to be returned before classes start the following day.

InterLibrary Loan:  If the high school IMC does not have a title that you are interested in, you may put a request in for the title and the IMC will try to borrow the item from another library. 

Computers:  The computers available for students in the IMC and lab are for school-related projects only.  Printers may be used with permission for class assignments only.  The district has a board-approved policy for computer and network use.  All students have received a copy of that policy.
