Some Tips
·
Plan ahead and prepare:
Plan to eat your meals before you come to the library. If
you carry in snacks or drinks, avoid messy or greasy foods
that may damage library material and facilities as well as
strong smelling and/or noisy foods that may be distracting
to others. Bring drinks in covered containers and be careful
to avoid spills.
·
Dispose of waste properly:
Pack it in, pack it out: carry out any leftover food and
non-disposable utensils or containers that you bring into
the library. Place garbage in trash cans. If you must
dispose of beverages, pour liquids into the bathroom sink
before recycling or throwing away the containers. · Leave library resources, furnishings, and equipment in the same or better condition as you found them. Report accidental spills to library staff as soon as possible · Be considerate of other visitors: Respect your fellow library users and the next generation of library users.
·
Remember:
There
is still a zero tolerance for Tobacco products in the
library.
