I do the same, Katherine.  I encourage students to borrow for the summer and I make them due a couple of weeks into the new year.  I think the possibility of a few not being returned is worth it.

I LOVE lending my books over the summer! I usually set the due date for sometime in the second week of school (I coordinate with the English department in terms of summer reading due dates/ expectations).

We do summer checkout. Normal rules apply. Students are responsible for returning books in the fall.

I am trying to gather information on school libraries that lend materials over the summer.  Are there any high schools that allow students to borrow over the summer?  If so, what are your policies?

Thanks for your help!
