WHS Library FAQ
-
Do I need a pass to go to the library?
If you are visiting the library between 7:30 and 2:50, you do need a pass to visit the library. You must have a pink pass completely filled out and signed by your teacher.
-
Do I need my student ID to check out books?
Yes. All students are required to have their student IDs on, out, and visible at all times.
-
How many books can I check out?
Students may have five books checked out at a time.
-
How long can I keep the library books?
Students may keep library books for two weeks. If your two weeks are up, and you haven't finished a book, you may extend the loan for two more weeks as long as no one else is waiting to check out the book.
-
How much will I be charged for overdue books?
The library does not charge late fees for books, but it does charge for lost or damaged books to cover the cost of a replacement book. However, if you cannot pay for a lost or damaged book, please see Mrs. Babaian.

How can I pay for a book that I lost or damaged?
You can pay for a lost or damaged book by going to the library's RevTrak webpage. If you pay for a lost book and find it sometime later, you can return it to Mrs. Babaian and a refund will be issued to you.
-
I still have books checked out from my middle school. Can I turn them in to you?
Yes, you can turn them into us as long you attended middle school in Fort Bend ISD. We cannot deliver books that come from another school district.
-
How can I check out if my teacher doesn't take my class to the library?
You have several options to check out books, even if your English teacher doesn't bring your class. You can visit the library before school as early as 7:00 AM, during your lunch, or after school until 3:00 PM.
You could also come with a pink hall pass if your teacher gives you one. Make sure the pink hall pass is completely filled out with your name, your teacher's signature, and the date and time. The pink hall pass must also have the library as your destination.
Sticky notes and scrap paper will not be accepted as a hall pass. The library will also not accept pink hall passes that are filled out for other areas of the school (the front office, the nurse, the counselors, etc.).
-
Can you reset my password/tell my what my password is?
Library staff across the district no longer have access to usernames and passwords.
Go to the FBISD Technology Resources site for detailed information on how to reset your passwords on your own.
