The Library is in the process of creating new group and quiet study spaces, which may affect where cell phones can best be used in the future, hence the interim nature of this policy.

We surveyed students in 2005 about cell phone use in the Library, and based upon the responses, we developed this policy:

• Cell phones should be set to silent or vibrate for incoming calls.
• Cell phone use should be limited to the front entrance area or to study rooms.
