Dos and Don'ts at the library
We ask for your cooperation to ensure that the library remains a pleasant place for everyone to study and work.
- In the interest of everyone, please keep conversations quiet at all times. The reading room is a quiet zone.
- If you’d like to study in groups, please use the designated group study rooms.
- Please don’t forget to set your cell phone to silent! Even vibration alerts can disturb others’ concentration. We recommend using “Do Not Disturb” mode or keeping your smartphone in your pocket instead of placing it on the table.
