As a part of the Emory community, the library is open to all Emory faculty, students, and staff, and during Finals we often welcome many new patrons to the library. We encourage all to extend hospitality to one another, sharing tables and assistance in the space, while alerting the library staff to any problematic behavior. For our building use policies, please visit\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/pitts.emory.edu\/policies\">http:\/\/pitts.emory.edu\/policies<\/a>.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Snacks Only<\/strong>: Due to higher library use, we make extra efforts to keep the space clean for our patrons and safe for our books. Please remember our food and drink policy, which allows only small snacks that don\u2019t create a mess or odors and only drinks in spill-proof containers. In addition, we ask that you clean up after yourself and alert staff to any spills or clutter needing attention. Please also be aware of how you are disposing of your waste, using the proper recycling and compost receptacles.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Extra Study Space<\/strong>: The library is happy to open extra study space for students during this busy time.\u00a0The\u00a03rd Floor Classrooms (Rooms 368 and 369) will be open as a study space from\u00a0Wednesday 12\/11\u00a0through Tuesday\u00a012\/17, and the 3<sup>rd<\/sup>\u00a0Floor Lecture Hall (Room 360) will be open as a study space from Saturday 12\/14 through Tuesday 12\/17.
