Quiet Study Areas
Each library reserves certain areas for quiet study and others for group study. It is requested that you respect
others' needs for quiet while in quiet study areas. If you are working with a group, please ask at the Circulation or
Reference Desk for a Group Study room or for an area where conversations won't disturb others. Please also note that the
areas near Library Service Desks are not designated as quiet study areas, as staff may need to hold conversations and
use equipment.
Cell Phones
Please do not make or receive telephone calls in the library study areas. Each library has designated
areas where you can hold phone conversations without disturbing others. Please ask at the Reference Desk for more
information.
