Can I eat and drink in the library?
Answer
Responsible consumption of food and beverages is allowed. Cleanliness of books and other library materials, furniture, carpets, computers, and printers is important in maintaining a pleasant and safe atmosphere for all library users.
Drinks in covered containers that prevent spills are acceptable, please, no open containers like cups.
If you spill or make a mess, please clean it up, or alert a library worker.
Limit food to snacks and small meals.
Large meals that cover an entire table or foods that are messy or smelly should be eaten in the DC Café on the 1st floor, not in the library. You'll find abundant seating in the café and you can study there while eating.
Please be considerate. We reserve the right to ask students to leave the library if they don't honor these rules.
