First, I would like to say thanks to all that responded with opinions on
students checking out their own materials.  A few of you said that it would
free the librarian to work with students, teachers, etc., and that high
school students can be trusted to check out their own books.  Most of you
had the following concerns:  students taking books without checking out,
checking out under other people's names, playing with the system to erase
fines/blocks.  These are some of the same concerns I have.  I am also afraid
that the students will quickly break the equipment by playing with it.  Many
of you suggested letting trusted student library assistants checkout
materials.  While this is a great idea at the elementary and middle school,
Oklahoma statutes prohibit any but library employees from checking out
material at the High School level.

Again, thanks for your help.
