Reminders about Using the RAL Library:

Library hours are 7:20 AM - 2:50 PM, 3:30 PM Tuedays-Thursdays. If Mrs. Enders stays later, you are welcomed to stay.
You do not need to reshelve books. Just put on the cart.
You can reserve an item, but don't forget it.
All materials are checked out overnight only, after 6th period.
All materials are due before 1st period.
Late overnight materials are fined at 25 cents per hour, starting at 7:51 AM.
Photocopies are 5 cents each. I like using this option myself. Remember to copy the title page, penciling in the copyright date.
Printing from computers: use directions in each database to save paper. Ask for help. We like to help.
If you only need 1 or 2 paragraphs of a multi-paged database article, create a "Notes" document for each source.
Picture printing costs 25 cents a sheet.
