5.Running, throwing, fighting or any other behavior which disrupts other library patrons. Patrons who cause repeated disruptions will be asked to leave the library premises. The police will be contacted if the disruptive patron refuses to leave or reenters the building. Children under age 8 must be accompanied and directly supervised by an adult, at all times, in all areas of the library, and on its grounds. Unattended children between ages 8 and 18 are free to utilize the library as long as needed, provided their behavior is not disruptive to other patrons or staff members.
Parents are responsible for their children's behavior on library premises.
It is not the library's responsibility to provide child care. If disruptive behavior continues, library staff are given the options of requesting the child leave, calling the parents, or calling the police to escort the child home. Staff are authorized to call police when the library closes if unattended children have not been picked up.
