cell phones in reading room



Last year we changed our rules and regulations to include, "Please TURN
OFF all cell phones and set beepers to vibrate only."   We have not had
any complaints, although we do have the occasional forgetful patron, and
like the others have mention, we just politely interrupt them and ask
them to step outside.

Lately I have heard that they are considering a ban on all cell phones
throughout the entire library. Apparently it is becoming something of
nuisance on the circulating floors as well.
