Food and Beverage Policy

Food in any form or container is not allowed in the library. However, beverages in spill-proof plastic mugs or plastic bottles can be brought into the library. Food poses many risks to our growing collections of library materials, as well as library furnishings. The most serious problems occur when food residue attracts pests or creates harmful conditions like mold. The library appreciates your understanding and cooperation in assisting us in keeping both materials and furnishings in good working order.

The Reading Room at Tisch Library is used for Late Night Study during the Fall and Spring Academic semesters. The Late Night Study schedule is available on the hours page.
