[LM_NET] TAR: Reshelving a damaged book

[Nicole Sette <nsette@GMAIL.COM>]

Hi All,

Yesterday, I had a student finally return a book that had been checked out
most of the school year. The student wrote his name all over the book and
outlined the barcode and spine label protector in pen. His teacher is
already working with me to get a replacement fee from him. Since the book is
most definitely still readable, I am wondering whether to reshelve the book
until I get a replacement or whether to give it away. I checked the archives
and found some great damaged book anecdotes and some wonderful sample
letters to send home from parents. Thanks in advance!
