Food and beverages attract rodents, cockroaches, silverfish and other unwanted pests that damage library materials. By complying with the policy, users and staff will help maintain a clean work environment, pest-free buildings, and aid in the preservation of our collections for future generations, while enjoying some food and drink in the library.

Do not bring food or drinks into areas posted “No Food or Drink” regardless of the type of container you have.
