Teacher overdues

[Erica Payne <epayne75@YAHOO.COM>]

Hello,

I am now in a school where the culture has been (for
many years) that teachers didn't have to return books-
ever!  We have instituted somewhat shorter loan
periods (7 weeks instead of 6 months).  We send
notices and sometimes get books back.  We usually send
a notice before the summer to return the books for
inventory purposes or sign them out for summer loan.
It doesn't help too much.  This year, we are going to
be on the Paycheck Chechlist - we willl have a line to
sign if the teacher has returned their books.  Does
anyone else do this?  If a teacher has lost the book,
what do you do?  Do you charge them for the cost of
the book?

Thanks in advance!
