For what it's worth, before they can borrow library books each September I have 
every kid in my school get a permission slip signed by a parent or guardian that 
states they may bring library books home.
The permission slip explains how our library works, and specifically states any 
lost or ruined books must be paid for before the students can borrow any other 
library materials.
While I wouldn't say it has cut our losses too much it is great to pull it out when 
a parent comes calling.

If a parent says no to books going home the student may borrow books but they must 
stay in the classroom. If they go home and I find out, then no more books. Sorry, 
Mom said so!!

I work in a school of 550 first, second and third graders. We have about 30% free 
lunch kids.
