Himmelfarb Food and Drink Policy
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, 1998, drinks are allowed in the
Library ONLY in thermal spill-proof mugs. These thermal
mugs do not sweat leaving condensation on the tables and
do not tip easily. Individualized negotiations regarding
acceptable versus not acceptable containers became too
contentious to manage. Therefore, all other beverage containers
found in the library will be collected and discarded.
Mugs are available for purchase at the Circulation desk
-
Food is allowed in modest quantities (e.g. sandwiches
or snacks); users are asked to cleanup 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 (SMHS or SPHHS as appropriate)
to explain their inability to follow posted regulations.
