Host Events in the Library

We love events! The Library makes every effort to accommodate event requests. The Librarians are experienced event planners and will happily advise on any element. However:

  • You are responsible for organizing everything related to your event: requests, advertising, setup, hosting, and cleanup.
  • Failure to coordinate with the Library with a planned event may result in you or your group being barred from hosting future events and/or an Honor Board referral.

Please fill out the form below to let the library know about your event:

During the Event

  • Keep exits, exit paths and stairway clear (fire code)
  • Maintain access to bookshelves, Quiet Reading Room and Team Rooms

After the Event

  • Clean as soon as your event ends.
  • Reset any lightweight furniture UNLESS that furniture was moved by Facilties. In that case, you may leave it for the Facilities crew to reset.
  • Remove all food.
  • Vacuum any crumbs and spray down all surfaces.
