Kids forgetting to bring lib.
Many students show up at the desk, though, with books to check out but without their cards.
We can type their names in and check books out that way, but we want to be sure that students are not checking books out for their friends. We are wondering how strict other libraries are about only checking books out to students who have remembered to bring their barcoded cards with them. That number is different from the student's ID number for the rest of the school. We know most of our students eventually, so taking books out on another's card is not a problem. We have no photos of students, but in our school of 650, we know our students - and check out items, just fine.
