Library Conduct
The Triton Student Code of Conduct must be followed. In addition to the code of conduct, the library enforces the following procedures for the good of all library patrons. The Library administration, faculty, and staff are fully authorized to interpret these guidelines and apply them to patron behavior as the situation warrants.
Any activity that interferes with the rights of other patrons to use the Library or that is potentially harmful to oneself or library users, staff, the facility, or our resources is considered disruptive or unacceptable. All library users have the right to read, write, and study in a safe, quiet, and clean space. To protect these rights, the Library staff enforces guidelines on food in the library, conduct in the various library spaces, cellphone usage in the Library, and the following.
For your safety and the safety of others:
- Library patrons are requested to have valid identification with them at all times.
- Children 14 and younger must be directly supervised by an adult. After reasonable attempts have been made to contact the parent or guardian, unaccompanied children will be reported to campus police. The Triton College library accepts no liability or responsibility for the safety of children in the Library.
- Keep personal items secure at all times. Belongings found unattended will be given to Campus Police.
- Patrons must wear shoes, shirts, and attire appropriate to a public setting.
- Library entrances, exits, and aisles must remain open.
- Do not run, jump, shove, or throw any object under any circumstance in the Library.
- Please be respectful of library materials and furniture. Use furniture in the manner it is designed.
- Library employees reserve the right to wake sleeping persons.
Please respect Library materials, facilities, and furnishings:
- Library property may only be removed from the building with authorization through appropriate lending procedures.
- Do not write on or otherwise damage library property, including books, walls, furniture, computer equipment, and facilities.
- Nonpublic areas of the Library may only be entered with permission.
