Please note Textbook Policy regarding Refunds: Any lost books from this school year will result in a replacement fine. There will be NO REFUNDS issued in August for books lost THIS school year. We will have already purchased replacements over the summer and be unable to refund.
Below are a several things that may help you when returning books:
1. If you have outstanding fines, you may pay now with a CHECK. After 5/31, CASH ONLY will be accepted.
2. Save time standing at the circulation desk and remove post-its before bringing book in.
3. To avoid long lines, do not return your book the last day of finals BETWEEN tests. This is always one of our busiest times. START RETURNING BOOKS NOW instead.
4. Watch for MCHS Library emails to see what items you have checked out, due date, and if you have fines.
5. If you have questions about your account, see Mrs. Sullivan in Room 18 soon. She’s happy to help.
