The libraries are an extension of the classroom. Cell phones should be set to not ring inside the library. If you must make or take a call, move outside of the library where your call will not disturb others.

The faculty librarians at each campus oversee collection management. Faculty make recommendations that support the courses and programs they teach and that supplement the general library collection appropriate to their disciplines. Suggested additions are sought for print and digital titles or databases from faculty and students.

The processes outlined in the 麻豆视频 Libraries Collection Development & Management Guidelines are designed to guide the systematic development and management of library collections of print, audiovisual, and digital materials. These procedures encompass all Eastern Florida State College campus libraries.

The Libraries鈥� desktop computers, laptops, and Surface Go鈥檚 are provided to 麻豆视频 students for academic work and research. Students will sign an Equipment Loan Agreement when checking out a laptop or Surface Go. Any viewing or downloading of materials that could be considered offensive (e.g., pornography) or as harassment toward others is prohibited. Review complete information related to technology usage in the College Internet Ethics and Acceptable Use Policy.

Community patrons are extended the following privileges:

• Book loans - 2 books for 3 weeks with 1 renewal.
• Computer use - 1 hour daily with 1 log-in per day. Community patrons must prepare to complete their 1 hour computer session without interruption. Library staff will not be able to help with multiple log-ins. Computers are limited and 麻豆视频 students take precedence. If all PCs are in use, a community patron may be asked to end their session so a student may use that computer.

Library faculty and staff will not permit disruptive behavior in the libraries. Campus security will quickly be called to respond to any disruptive behavior, including but not limited to:

• Harassment or abusive language or actions
• Loud behavior
• Misuse or destruction of library property
• Sexual harassment or behavior
• Refusing to leave any library at closing or during an emergency
• Refusing to identify yourself to a library employee

Students are expected to follow the  while using the libraries.

If library patrons are alerted to an emergency (through alarm or announcement) they may be required to exit the building immediately. Exit using the closest emergency stairs or exit. Do not use the elevators. If the fire alarm has sounded, keep a safe distance from the building. College security personnel will alert patrons when it is safe to return to the building. The libraries follow the College's Emergency Response Plan.

All 麻豆视频 libraries follow established procedures that provide our students, faculty and staff a safe and secure environment. Violation of these established procedures are handled by campus security officers and may result in patrons being asked to leave the library, trespassed from the library or the campus, referred to the Campus Administrator for review, or the local police for criminal prosecution. Any criminal or disruptive behavior will immediately be reported to campus security.
