Library Behavior Policy -LI0003

Policy Code
LI0003
Department/Office
Library

Alfaisal Library strives to maintain a welcoming, comfortable, and safe environment for all users, i.e., anyone who enters our buildings. Users of the Alfaisal Library are expected to maintain behavior that consistently respects the rights of other users to study and research within the buildings. Users are also expected to adhere to Alfaisal Library policies as well as relevant University rules and regulations. Users are encouraged to support this effort by informing other users of these policies.

Library building monitors or other staff will ask users engaging in behavior that disrupts the study and effective use of the Libraries (for example, playing music or making other loud noises) to curtail the disruptive behavior or leave the building. The Library staff reserves the right to determine what conduct constitutes "disruptive behavior." If the disruptive behavior persists, library building monitors or other staff will contact the campus security for assistance. Alfaisal Library‘s user behavior expectations follow.

Cell Phone

When entering any library building, please set cell phones, pagers, and other electronic devices to silent or vibrate mode. Conduct noisy cell phone conversations in designated areas or outside.

Children

Children are not allowed the Library.

Clothing

Users must wear appropriate attire for public places, including shoes, at all times when in the Alfaisal Library.

In Alfaisal Library, verbal warnings are giving several times before closing: once 30 minutes before closing, twice 15 minutes before closing, three times 5 minutes before closing, and last one at closing time.
