The
Himmelfarb Health Sciences Library, as one of the most
student-friendly libraries in the country, allows food
and drink in the library under the following guidelines
which are strictly enforced:
- Effective August 17, 1999, drinks are allowed in
the Library ONLY in one of two container types: A)
thermal mugs such as the official Himmelfarb Sip and
Study Mug or B) bottles with a pop-up closure. You
will be asked to remove all other types of beverage
containers from the Library. Please cooperate with
Library staff. Individualized negotiations regarding
acceptable versus not acceptable containers became
too contentious to manage. Mugs are available for
purchase at the Circulation desk for a reasonable
fee. You may also stop by the Circulation desk for
a free sticker with the Himmelfarb logo to affix to
your thermal mug or approved water bottle. A poster
featuring approved mugs and bottles is available for
your review at the Circulation desk.
- Food is allowed in modest quantities (e.g. sandwiches
or snacks). Users are asked to clean-up and place
wrappers in trash baskets. No food deliveries are
allowed.
- No food or drink is allowed near any equipment or
computer workstation. This means no food or drink
in the Bloedorn AV Study Center or Microcomputer Lab
or around the PCs on the first floor of the Library.
- Students who do not comply with these regulations
will be directed to the Dean's Office (SMHHS or SPHHS
as appropriate) to explain their inability to follow
posted regulations.
