This is a library card.

Having a library card lets me check out things like books, DVDs, CDs, movies, and

music. There are rules about getting and using a library card. A librarian can provide

me with more information about getting and using my library card.

• These are some things not allowed at the library:– Eating food– Being too loud and disrupting others– Running– Damaging library property

• One of the most important rules in the Children’s Room is the Unattended Children Policy

– This rule exists to protect children– Children under the age of 8 have to be supervised at all times by their

caregiver– The library staff does not assume responsibility for unattended children

My library has rules.

I need to pay attention to library rules that may prevent me from eating, drinking,

and sleeping. My library is here for the community so I always need to be

considerate of other people at the library.
