Group Study, Noise & Cell Phones
The library is intended for quiet study and research. Rooms for group study are located on the
2nd floor.
Students should expect a certain amount of noise on the 1st floor - where we have computers,
printers, reference service and circulation activity going on continuously.
Loud or disruptive talking is not allowed, including on a cell phone. The stairwells and
outside patio are good places for cell phone conversations. Portable music and video devices
must be used with headphones.
Food & Drink
Food and unsealed drinks are not permitted in the Library. Food attracts unwanted pests that find
our books quite tasty. Unsealed drinks can easily spill on books and computing equipment. Please
enjoy meals at Pandinis, or on our patio.
