Re: cell phone use in Archives Research Rooms



We do not have any set policy for cell phone use. Because we are a medical
library many of our researchers are doctors. If they, or anyone else,
receives calls in the Reading Room I ask that they take the call out in the
lobby. After, I ask if they can turn their phone to vibrate. This is usually
enough.

Colleagues:
        I would appreciate your thoughts or policies about the use of cell
phones by patrons in your public research areas. Do you allow it or not. I
noticed to day how noisy our Research Room had become with rings, calls,
etc.
