[LM_NET] ELEM: When does book checkout begin?

[Kathryn Tamms <ktamms@FOXVALLEY.NET>]

Hello,

This is my second year in a brand new library, but I didn't start  
until mid-Sept. last year, so this will be my first year starting at  
the beginning.

I'd like to know how soon your students start checking out books.   
I've read a couple posts about waiting with the kindergartners, but  
I'm curious what you do with other grades. Do you delay book checkout  
for the first week or two and focus more on library lessons/reading  
stories/reviewing rules?

Thanks,
