The Monongahela Area Library is committed to being a welcoming place for all.
To achieve that, all patrons must always remember to extend courtesy to their fellow visitors and library staff.
That behavior includes:
- using lowered speaking voices
- talking to others in a civil manner
- not engaging in arguments
- watching your children
- no running or rough housing
- no leaving toys or other items on the floor someone could trip over
- no talking on your mobile device indoors
- viewing appropriate content on all computers
- no sleeping
- no smoking or vaping indoors
- cleaning up after yourself, including in the bathroom
- wearing a top, bottom, and shoes at all times.
If these requests are violated:
- A patron will receive a polite request from the staff to comply.
- If that request is unmet, a patron will be asked to leave the library property for the day.
- If a reoccurring pattern of behavior occurs with a patron(s), the library director reserves the right to ban the patron(s) from the library for a set amount of time, including indefinitely.
- Patrons may present their case to the library board with the director and any witnesses to the incident in attendance.
Thank you for your efforts to comply with the above.
