Library Rules

• The library is a quiet place to work and study. Students are asked to be respectful of the needs of others. If group study is required, the librarians will provide a place for that activity.

• Because food and drink can damage library materials and equipment and attract insects, eating and drinking are not allowed in the library. Students who violate this rule will be required to remain after school for 30 minutes to help the librarians prepare the library for the next day.

• In order to maintain a dignified atmosphere in the library, we ask students to refrain from sitting on the tables, the ramp railings, or the floor, and to pick up after themselves when they leave the library. This includes: throwing trash into the wastebaskets, replacing magazines and newspapers in the racks, returning books to the main desk for shelving, and pushing chairs back under the tables.

• Students who consistently do not follow the library's rules will lose library privileges. Students who are repeatedly sent out of the library for disciplinary reasons are subject to loss of library privileges for the remainder of the school year.
