Frequently Asked Questions
05 /
What if I don't finish my book in time?
01 /
How long can I keep a book?
Every loan can be kept for 28 days. There will always be a notification up with the date that all books borrowed that day must be returned. If that day is not a school day, try to return the book early to avoid fines.
​
The returns box is emptied at least once a day.
Should you need more time to finish your book, you can always ask for an extension, if there is no reservation on the book. Please bring the book in before the return date when you want to extend the loan, and you can borrow the book for another two weeks.

What if the Library is closed?
02 /
What can I get help with?
The returns box is placed outside of the Library, which means that you can return any book at any time. There is also a returns box by the senior reception.
In the Library, no task is too hard. Finding a good book to read, finding information, Schoolsoft, contacting people, how to cite a text, how to refer to a source, maths, grammar, gardening... the list is endless.
If you ever have a question, the answer is in the Library!

"Can you recommend a good book"?
07 / Do dragons fart fire?
From everything we have been shown, it seems that fire is ejected from their mouths because of some glands in their throats. So, Many researchers would say no. There is, however, a book called "The Inquisitor's tale" where a dragon suffers from flaming flatulence due to dietary issues. I suppose it really comes down to the world of the dragon, and to the author, if a dragon farts fire. Just because they don't, doesn't mean that they can't!
Your Librarian is more than willing to help you, but you need to say a little more about yourself. What's good to me might be not so good to you!
04 /
How many books can I borrow?
The Librarian will not let you borrow all the books in the Library at once. You can, however, borrow a few books, and you can take them home to read. Please do not read in the bath as wet books will often offend. If you have many late books in your account. you may not borrow any more until at least some of the late ones are returned.
