located at one side,
while reference
materials are across
the room.

students to work at
a time.

the class

questions.
2. No food or drinks allowed in the
library.
3. Return books to the carts when
finished.

everyone, and everyone
may use it.
 Keeping quiet allows your
fellow students to work.
 Books that are in good
condition may be used by
everyone for years.
 Following rules earns
privileges like borrowing
books and computer time.
