Booker T. Washinton High School incorporates technology with the printed page to help in the education of students. We offer a wide selection of learning materials. We have thousands of printed works on hand, as well as digital media such as an extensive video library and multiple computer stations with high-speed internet access.
Students are allowed to check out up to 8 items at a time, unless given permission by library staff to borrow more. Students should have access to the information needed to be successful for learning projects. Please remember to be responsible with resources. Others may be needing the same titles, so return books in a timely manner.
Books are checked out for three weeks and may be renewed once, except items on hold by another student/teacher. Again, we need to be respectful of others needed the same resources our library has to offer.
Students are responsible for materials checked out in their names. Overdue fines are $0.05 per school day for each item, up to a maximum of $1. Replacement cost will be charged for lost or damaged books. Students owing fees or fines will lose checkout privileges and receive a hold on grades at the end of the grading periods.
Copies made on the copier and copies printed from the computers are 10¢ per sheet. Students are expected to pay for each sheet.
All students are expected to follow the rules as set forth in the Tulsa Public School Students’ Rights and Responsibilities Handbook.
The mission of Booker T. Washington High School Library Media Center is to provide access to a wide variety of resources for all members of our learning community. The library will strive to ensure the Standards for the 21st Century Learner from the AASL are incorporated into student driven projects. It is essential for all user of information to effectively analyze, evaluate, interpret, and communicate new knowledge and ideas.
