Food, Drink, and Tobacco Products Policies
The NCSU Libraries is responsible for preserving collections,
equipment, and furnishings for both current and future users. At
the same time, the Libraries wants to offer a comfortable environment.
These policies attempt to achieve a balance that meets both needs.
The smoking and/or chewing of tobacco products are not allowed
in library buildings.
Food may not be brought into the library by patrons. Food is
allowed only in the vicinity of vending machines in clearly designated
areas, such as lounges, or in conjunction with events sponsored
by the Libraries.
Covered drinks are permitted in many areas of the building; all
drink containers must be securely covered while in transit. Spill-resistant
containers such as travel mugs are recommended.
Drinks are not permitted in auditoriums or in areas that house
unique collections or equipment.
In D. H. Hill, drinks are not permitted in the following
areas:
Assistive Technologies Center
Erdahl-Cloyd Theater
Graduate Student Computer Room
ITTC Labs
Media Center
Microforms Center
Mini-Theater
Photocopier areas
Publicly accessible computer workstations and printstations
Special Collections/Archives
Unity Lab
People who violate these policies will be asked to dispose of
their food or drink, or to leave the building to consume the food
or drink.
