What are the rules about eating in the library?
Answer
Hello,
Food & (non-alcoholic) Beverages are allowed in most parts of the library, subject to these guidelines:
- Beverages are to be in containers with secure lids.
- Personal servings of food are allowed in appropriate sealable containers.
- Food items that may disturb library users (i.e. aromatic, noisy foods) or may damage library materials should be consumed outside the library.
- Food and beverage related refuse should be disposed of properly.
- Customers are expected to promptly clean up their spills and messes.
- Customers should immediately report sizable spills needing staff attention.
Due to the sensitive nature of these materials, food and beverages are not permitted in these areas of the Library:
- Near Library electronic equipment (computers, photocopiers, printers, etc.)
- Cole Library 2nd floor, Genealogy and Carlsbad History.
Thank you,
Reference Librarian
