Computers are usually available to students before and after school. Studentswishing to use the library during the school day may do so only through the “pass system”. The Media Centerin the Academy Building will be open from 7:10 a.m. to 2:10 p.m. Only freshmen with passes may use the commonarea of the Media Center during their study halls. All other students should go to the main library during study halls.The student who has a reference assignment will get a pass from the teacher who gave the assignment. At the startof the designated period, the student will go directly to the library and will, on entering the library, leave the pass atthe main desk. Because school-wide attendance is taken during period A, all students must report to their assignedfirst period classes or study halls for attendance before reporting to the library. Students must present their IDs tothe library staff when they enter the facility.Each student will be given one opportunity per semester to enter the library without an ID after all other studentshave been processed. The names of all students who attempt to enter the library without an ID will be sent to theappropriate administrator. An ID card is also required to check out or renew books or other library materials. Allstudents leaving the library must pass through an electronic security scanner. Any student attempting to leave thelibrary with unauthorized books or materials, books or materials not properly signed out, or who attempts to avoidthe security system, is subject to administrative discipline and possible suspension. Between 7:15 a.m. and 2:10p.m., students will be allowed to go to the library only during study periods or on a pass from a teacher. Any studentwho does not return books or materials on time will be issued a warning notice. Following that notice, the student willhave 5 school days to return the item(s) or to make restitution. If overdue items have not been returned or paid forin two weeks, all library privileges will be suspended, including admittance, and an administrative detention will beassigned. When items are four weeks overdue, the student will receive a Saturday detention. Thereafter, additionaldisciplinary action will be taken at the discretion of the administrator.The administration reserves the right to prevent chronic offenders from all library use at Pinkerton Academy.

Extraordinary situations should be brought to the attention of the library staff, and will be handled on anindividual basis.
