LIBRARY POLICIES: FOOD AND DRINK
Policy Purpose
Food and drink are limited in Upjohn Library Commons
to keep trash to a minimum, prevent damage to
the building, and to prevent damage to library materials,
including books and computers.
FOOD
Food is limited to snack or wrapped items that are consumed individually.
Group meals, fast food, or open plates of food
(such as pizza, subs, or take-out)
are allowed in the Biggby’s area ONLY.
The delivery of food to Upjohn Library Commons
for building users is prohibited.
This policy applies to all Upjohn Library Commons
classrooms (rooms 302-312 and 213) and study rooms
(rooms 211, 212, 217, and 319) at all times.
Users eating foods that disturb other patrons
(such as strong-smelling foods or loud, crunchy foods)
will be asked to put the food away.
DRINKS
No alcoholic beverages are permitted in Upjohn Library Commons at any time.
The following drink containers are acceptable:
- Spill-proof mugs (such as travel mugs, screw-top containers,
or pull-top containers) with the top attached at all times
- Leak proof water bottles with leak proof lids that
close securely, either twist on or pop-top sports type.
Lids must be kept securely closed when not in use.
- Biggby Paper cups with lids
The following drink containers are NOT acceptable:
- cans
- bottles without a screw-on cap
- containers with built-in drinking straws

Patrons disregarding the Food and Drink Policy
will be asked to leave the Library.
Food and drink are never allowed in
the College Archives, Rare Book Room, ULC 118, Video Editing Studio,
Video Production Studio, Audio Studio, or Graphics Lab.
Users are liable for any damage to library property and
equipment caused by food or drink.
Information Services staff have final approval of any sort of
food, beverage, or container allowed in the Upjohn Library Commons
building, and reserve the right to exclude any food, beverage,
or container for any reason.
SALE OR DISTRIBUTION OF FOOD OR DRINK
Sale or distribution of food, drink, or other items that may interfere with the commerce of the Book Club Café (Biggby) is prohibited inside the Upjohn Library Commons building.
Please follow these simple rules and don’t
make us have to become the food and drink police.
Not many libraries allow food or drink, but we want
to make your study time as comfortable as possible.
We need your cooperation to continue this policy.
Be responsible and leave no trace!
