Sleeping in the Library

Sleeping in the library is not allowed. Staff must use their own judgment to determine whether or not waking an individual is a potential danger. If staff decide to wake the patron, they should always team up with another staff member to awaken the individual. Staff are encouraged to call the police to wake individuals who appear to be under the influence of a behavior changing substance, or are perceived to potentially react violently when awakened. An ambulance should be called for any individuals that library staff are unable to wake or if the individual is not coherent to place and time upon awakening.
