What to do if you get a missing/lost book notice?

Book notices are sent out monthly - by email and paper. If a book has not returned by the end of the quarter, there will be a fine assigned. You can pay the fine at the office by sending cash (exact if possible), or check made to Hood Canal School. You can also purchase the exact same book title (hardcover if possible).
