Overdue Library Books
The University Park Library currently has over 90 overdue books which represent $1700 in fines or replacement costs. These missing books impact our school both in lost library content for kids and school expense.
If you have received an overdue notice email from Denver Public Schools Library Services and/or your child has brought home an overdue book slip, please look for the book and return it to our library. If the book can't be located you will need to reimburse UPark for the amount listed in the notice or on the slip. Students with accounts that remain overdue after the end of the year will be unable to check out books at the beginning of the next school year.
