Culottes, dress shorts, business suits with shorts, and other businesslike shorts are permitted. During business hours, staff are expected to present a clean, neat appearance. Clothing should be clean and cared-for. It is impossible to cover all contingencies of dress in a manual, so questionable attire should be cleared in advance with a supervisor or Director. If there is a need for a special meeting, a group of three or more staff members may petition the Director for an emergency meeting.
Attendance is mandatory.
Professional reading must never be allowed to interfere with helping patrons, and should be kept to a minimum when at a public service desk. Personal calls should be placed during break times or meal times. Please take any personal calls on phones which are away from the public's view. Patrons at the desk take precedence over patrons on the telephone. When busy, take the person's name and number and call them back later.
