Guidelines for Tutors

We welcome the use of our facilities by students requiring tutoring. We feel the library provides an excellent location for such activities. However, in order to avoid disruptions to the general public and staff, we must require the following of all students and tutors.
• The library must take into account the needs of other library users when allocating space for tutoring.
• Those wishing to use library space for tutoring should contact the branch supervisor by phone, fax, email, or in person for approval of tutoring sessions. This will allow the library to gauge the space available for all user needs and provide the best environment for all.
• Tutors are required to provide all available contact information including name, phone, cell phone, email, and proposed tutoring schedule to branch supervisor at least one week prior to planned tutoring sessions.
• Tutoring cannot begin until written approval is provided by branch supervisor.
• Tutors will be required to sign in, provide contact information, and the student’s name for each session.
• Tutors are required to directly supervise students at all times during scheduled tutoring sessions to ensure they abide by the Library Code of User Conduct. All library users are subject to the Library Code of Conduct and applicable sanctions will be applied for inappropriate behavior.
• The public schools require that the student not be left unattended by the tutor before, during, or after any tutoring session. In the event a child is left unattended, the library director will contact the sponsoring agency to inform them that a child was left unattended by the tutor. The library may revoke the tutor’s privilege of using library space for up a semester if a student is left without transportation.
