Appropriate
Library Behavior
This policy was adopted
May 24, 2011 by the Duluth Public Library Board.
Everyone has a right to expect
and receive quality library service at the Duluth Public Library
in an atmosphere that is calm and safe. To ensure that the Duluth
Public Library provides a pleasant experience for all who use
it, library users are expected to follow these guidelines.
- Respect yourself and others. The library is shared by many people.
Be courteous and expect courteous treatment from staff and other
library users. Library staff will be glad to answer your questions.
- Respect the property of the
library and the property of others. Library materials and equipment belong to the
community. Please treat them gently and follow library policies
governing their use. If you bring your own items into the library,
be sure to keep them with you at all times.
- Respect the quiet atmosphere
of the library. It's
not necessary to whisper, but please speak quietly to avoid disturbing
others. Cell phone use should be kept quiet.
- Abide by all applicable local,
state, and federal policies and/or laws. Failing to adhere to library policies will result
in library privileges being revoked. Other violations will be
subject to the law.
Library staff has the authority
and responsibility to ensure that this policy is followed by everyone
who uses the library.
The Duluth Public Library's
policies are subject to change without notice.
