ELEM: Books Over the Holidays?

[JOYCE H NELSON <jhn100g@MAIL.ODU.EDU>]

Am wondering, do you guys encourage your K-5 children to take books home
over the holidays, or do you "call in" all books before school shuts down
for winter vacation?  Do you limit the number of books children may
check out before a holiday?  There is a strong possibility that our doors
will be closed for two full weeks.  We want the kids to have access to
library books, yet we're concerned that so many of our children tend to
move away (unannounced, of course) during this time.  Thoughts, anyone?

Sincerely,
