Quiet zone
- Whispered conversation
- Mobile phones on vibrate
- Use electronics with earphones
Silent zone
- No conversation
- Mobile phones turned off
- Use electronics with earphones only if they do not create a noise others can hear
Show care for resources and equipment. Smoking, including electronic cigarettes, is not permitted anywhere on the premises. Drink within the Library is accepted, within reason, with containers disposed of promptly. Food is not allowed anywhere in the Library.
For the sake of all users, study tables cannot be reserved. Please, do not leave your personal belongings on the table while you are out.
Books consulted in the Reading Room must be left in the returning sections. Never put them back on the shelf.
Material requested for loan must be registered at the Library desk or the Self Check machine located in the Library Hall before leaving the area.
A security alarm sounds if a user takes unchecked Library materials out of the Library, to alert staff that documents have not been properly checked out. Users are responsible for all materials checked out under their name.
After returning a book using the Self Check service, please place it in the Book Drop next to the machine. Also, when the library is closed, you can deposit books by leaving them in the Book Drop outside the Library’s main door.
