Library Conduct Policy
Patrons of the MSU-Great Falls Campus Library should expect a safe, secure, and comfortable environment conducive to study and research. To insure this kind of environment, the library expects its patrons to follow library and campus rules, policies, and procedures.
To maintain the library as a quiet, comfortable and safe space, the following conduct expectations will be enforced:
-
Cell phones need to be turned off in the library. Excessive noise including loud conversations and cell phone use is not allowed.
- Food and drink should be restricted to snack-type items at library tables, not at computer stations.
- Children under the age of 14 must be accompanied by an adult (as per college policy) and must remain with that adult; children under the age of 14 cannot work independently on a computer.
- Computers are provided in the library for academic support. A patron should not tie up library or computer lab computers with non-academic activities and may be asked to relinquish his/her computer to another user.
- Patrons who leave a work station or library table in such a condition that another user cannot use the space may have library use privileges revoked temporarily or permanently.
- Exhibiting behaviors that are disruptive to other users or library staff members may result in a request to leave the library.
Right to Refuse Service
The library has an obligation to manage disruptive behaviors quickly and professionally The MSU-Great Falls Campus Library reserves the right to refuse service to library users who act in ways that disrupt other library users, library staff, or library facilities. Such behaviors include:
- refusal to follow library and campus rules and policies;
- harassment of other library users or library staff;
- personal hygiene issues that affect other library users, library staff, or library facilities;
- threatening or violent behavior.
Any patron exhibiting such behavior will be asked to cease; continued violations may necessitate banning that patron from the library. If the patron is a student, the violation may fall under the MSU-GF Student Conduct Code.
