If the child is under 3, the adult must stay with the child. If the child is 3-7 years old, the adult must remain in the building. Parents should consider an older child's ability to be responsible for himself when left unattended in the library. Older children using the library for reading or research should not be left for long periods of time. It is particularly important that the adult come for the child before the library closing time.
All patrons are subject to the library's Code of Conduct.
The code will be explained and a copy given to the offending person. If the disruptive behavior continues, the patron will be asked to leave the library. If a child will not cooperate, the staff will attempt to reach a parent or guardian. Proper authorities will be notified next. Visits should be scheduled at least two weeks ahead.
