I want to thank those who answered my question about damaged books. Many
agreed that milk crates can be brutal to the corners of books. My question
about the student who wrote on the front pages of a brand new book and erased
the markings might have been a bit confusing. Everyone said damaged books
are paid for just as if the book was lost. But this book is still very
usuable. It was the idea that this student was the first to check out this
brand new book and brought it back in less than pristine condition (a younger
child at home got hold of the book and did the "drawing" in the book).
Should the student face some sort of punishment (financial or some other
kind) for allowing this to happen? Any suggestions?
