Reading Room Policies & Procedures
  • All coats and bags must be left at the front of the Arts of the Book (AOB) Collection reading room. There are several wooden cubicles near the front door for your convenience. A coat rack is available just outside the room. Notebooks, sketchbooks, laptops, or other note taking devices are permitted. The staff reserves the right to inspect personal papers at any time.
  • Only pencils may be used for note taking. Pencils are provided on the reading table if you do not have one.
  • Readers may pull any materials on open shelves in the AOB reading room. We request that these items be used only on the reading table and left on the table after use. Do not stand and read the materials. Do not reshelve any books, however briefly you consulted the item. The staff would be happy to assist you in finding materials at anytime.
  • All materials housed outside the AOB reading room must be requested in advance. Offsite materials require 24 hours advance notice. LSF items materials require 48 hours advance notice. Readers must fill out a request form for all materials.
  • Readers must fill out a request form for all restricted materials housed in the reading room. These items can be requested and viewed on the same day.
  • Photographic identification must be left on deposit at the front desk while restricted materials are in use.
