NOISE IN THE LIBRARY

The library staff tries to keep noise levels down inside as well as outside the library.  If you are experiencing any noise issues, please tell a staff member immediately.  During these last two weeks of the semester, we will be patrolling the library more frequently to insure the library is as quiet as possible.  We suggest the third floor as a good study area, or the Reading Lounge.  You may also reserve one of our seven study rooms for a two hour slot.  Remember these rooms are available during all hours the library is open.

Best wishes in successfully wrapping up the spring semester!
