General Library Policies
The library is run on the honor system. Every law school student is expected
to display professional courtesy to classmates and staff and adhere to the following
policies:
- Checkout material before removing it from the library;
- Handle materials with care;
- Follow applicable copyright guidelines and licensing restrictions;
- Make sure drinks are in covered containers;
- Do not bring in food that is messy, smelly, or noisy when eaten; individual
snack items are allowed;
- Turn off cell phone ringers upon entering the library and take all cell
phone conversations outside the library; do not hold cell phone conversations
in the stairwells as voices carry;
- Be courteous and keep noise levels down, including in the study rooms (the
4th floor is designated as a quiet floor);
- Do not leave personal belongings unattended in the library and secure laptops
to carrels/tables;
- Do not engage in exclusive possession (homesteading) of carrels; unattended
materials will be confiscated when left for extended periods of time.
In the spirit of maintaining a collegial atmosphere, feel free to point out
these policies directly to classmates or other patrons who are not adhering
to them.
If you have a concern, please contact library personnel at the circulation
or reference desks. Please keep in mind that library personnel are not able
to monitor the entire library at all times.
