b. Lost and Found

Non-perishable items left in and around library premises will be stored for six weeks. If left unclaimed, lost and found items will then become the property of the library and dealt with as the Library deems appropriate.

c. Behaviour Code

Library users and staff must maintain an environment that is safe, secure, conducive to study and enjoyable for all persons.
The library is a scent-free and smoke-free environment.
Cell phones, pagers and other electronic devices must be turned off or muted.

Only authorized entrances, exits and library space may be used by the public.

d. Community Bulletin Boards

Where space permits, the library may provide a community bulletin board. Community groups or individuals requesting space are required to submit their material to the library for posting. Postings do not reflect the views of the library, nor is the library responsible for the reliability of information posted.

The library reserves the right to refuse postings and to determine the position of postings on the bulletin board. Dated or worn materials will be removed, and will not be returned.
