Bank interest as income

My husband has 4 IRAs with a local bank.  Each has earned different amounts of interest.  We were told by a bank employee that if the interest was less than $10 we did not have to report it.  I thought if the TOTAL paid by the bank was more than $10, we had to report it.  The total is around $40 but if we don't add them  up, we only have around $26.  What is correct?  We do not want to under-report, but I don't want to pay more in income.
