Overdue Books and Computer Use
Just a reminder folks, if a patron has an overdue book, regardless of the amount of their fine, they are unable to use the computers. Try to renew the book for them if possible, but if it is not possible, they will have to purchase a guest pass if they want to use the computers.
Even if their account balance is less than $2, they still cannot use the computer with an overdue book on their account.
The Reference Desk staff cannot and will not "override" people's accounts to allow them to use the computers, no matter what the patron's story is.

Meeting Room Reservation Reminders
Remember that meeting rooms can be reserved for up to two hours at a time, and up to three times a week. Please write as legibly as possible and mark it accordingly on the schedule book on the appropriate time block. This will hopefully prevent double-bookings or overlaps.
