Food and drink are allowed in most areas of the Sturgis and Johnson Libraries, but the Library asks for your cooperation in observing the following set of conditions:

• NO FOOD in any collaborative technology rooms (interactive media tables with monitors).
• Drinks MUST BE COVERED by a lid or cap where computer equipment is located.
• No foods that have a strong odor or that have distracting sounds.
• Food deliveries are not allowed in the Library.
• Discard all trash in waste bins.

Clean up spills as soon as possible (ask at the Check-Out Desk if assistance is needed), and contact a library employee if other assistance is needed or with policy enforcement.

You may find the full Food and Drink Policy on the Library's website.
