@thecontouredlibrarian: I thought I was losing my mind- clearly I was just losing books. 🤣📚 #schoollibrarian #lostbooks #librariansoftiktok #bookreturn #checkin
How do you stop this? I get you talk to the kid but that’s not going to stop him. At our library if you don’t check out the book an alarm goes off at the door maybe you need this.

I'm just trying to imagine what their mom must've been thinking finding all those. The confusion and then mild horror as the pile of library books just kept growing.

Assuming this is a redirect conversation with the student. “We love how much you’re engaged in reading but we need to make sure you check them out”

I had a student that did this too!! Parent returned the books a few weeks ago…23 books that were either “lost” or just taken from the library!!!

Little one has the spirit, the library is the place to take stuff from. Just properly, and with a plan to take it back 😂

I'm just happy that the mum noticed and actually took action. We loose kindergarten toys, clearly marked, and somehow they never return even when we make a missing post 🤷♀️🤷♀️

I felt bad because my 4yo checked out a library book at school and when I told him to put it away (I meant backpack) he put it on his bedroom book shelf instead. It was “missing” for months 🫣

I wonder if they had the checkouts and the system wouldn't let them check out more so they just "skipped that step" 😅

Our school library doesn’t have walls or a door and this is a huge problem but none of the higher ups want to do anything about it 😭
