Food & Drink: Food is not permitted anywhere in the Library. Beverages in special spill-resistant containers are allowed, but not at computer terminals or while using Library materials.

Quiet Study: The Library is a place for quiet study. Group study rooms are available on all floors in the building: if you need to confer with others, please reserve one of these rooms by going to the Circulation desk (1st floor).

Cellular Telephones: To avoid disturbing others, turn off your cell phone when you enter the Library. If you need to use your phone, please exit the building.

Furniture: Please refrain from putting your feet on chairs, carrels, or other pieces of furniture. This helps keep the new furniture clean, and others will appreciate this courtesy.

Personal Audio:Make personal audio players truly personal: keep the volume low so that only you can hear it.

Signs: Please do not post signs anywhere in the Library, on any surface. This helps keep the building neat and clean.

There is no smoking anywhere in the Library, cf. the New York State fire code.
