May I transport beverages between the bridge and lobby? Beverages in secure
containers may be transported between the library entrance and the bridge.
What do I do if I only have a non-secure container? Beverages purchased outside

 Lockers
Lockers are available for patron use for 25 cents. They are located on the first floor in recessed
alcoves at both ends of the wall behind the Information Desk. The locations are designated by
an “L” on the floorplan.
To use the lockers: Place items inside locker, close door, insert 25-cent coin, and remove key. The
coin is not returned when the door is re-opened; to continue use of a locker, another quarter must be
inserted.
Locker users are advised that food and beverages may not be stored in the lockers and library
materials should be checked out before storing. To ensure compliance, Raynor Circulation Staff
may search through the lockers. For the security of future users, a lost key fee of $50 will
be assessed to replace both key and lock mechanism. Lockers are maintained by the Raynor
Circulation staff. Questions should be directed to that desk or by calling 288-7555. |
Noise
Our library includes spaces for both group work and quiet study. The open environment and
furniture in Raynor encourage conversations, but these conversations need to be at a reasonable
volume. Library patrons whose voices seem to be unnecessarily loud will be asked to monitor
their voices. Please be aware of those around you and take your conversation to a more private
area if needed.
Quiet Study Areas
Patrons needing a quiet study environment may use designated quiet study areas in
Raynor--located just east of the bridge--or look for quiet areas in Memorial Library. There are
six floors in Memorial with tables and study carrels scattered throughout. While there are not
currently areas designated for quiet study, you'll find that a number of areas are well-suited for that
purpose. For further information about finding your way around Memorial Library, please talk
to a library staff member.
Software Assistance
The Information Commons provides desktop applications for academic purposes. Staff at
the Information Desk are available to assist patrons with beginning-to intermediate-level questions.
Given the number of applications available, the staff can not provide advanced tech support
on a walk-in basis. We will however endeavor to provide referrals or arrange an appointment
for you to meet with someone who may be more knowledgeable. Staff will guide patrons, offer
advice on methods to maximize application functionality, and perform tasks as a demonstration of a
function; however, staff will not complete a patron's work. During busy periods at the desk,
priority will be given to short and urgent problems over in-depth training. Patrons who are
novices with a software package should allow an appropriate amount of time to become familiar with
the package and to complete their own work. |
