Leave no trace: Please leave library furnishings and resources in the same condition as you found them. Wipe up spills (all restrooms have paper towels). Report any spills or trash to library staff as soon as possible.

Why do we have these restrictions?
- To protect the collection and equipment.
- To prevent infestation of bugs, mice, and other pests.
- To keep floors and furnishings in good condition.
Please…
- Pick up after yourself – take out what you bring in.
- Report spills promptly to library staff.
- Be respectful of your fellow students and leave your study area clean for the next person.
