Food or Drink

Food or Drinks NOT PERMITTED in TMC Library Classrooms When Library Laptops are Used or Present in the Room

Food and drink are allowed in the study and conference rooms. It is up to the user to make their own arrangements for catering. Alcoholic beverages are generally not permitted. Special exceptions for wine at events utilizing the space outside the street level conference room or the first-floor foyer must be approved by the Library prior to the event. In addition, a licensed server must be on premise to serve the alcoholic beverage. Non-licensed individuals may not serve alcohol. Many bars and restaurants that hold liquor permits also hold catering permits. To serve alcohol at your event, the professional caterer providing the licensed server must hold liability insurance including liquor liability with limits of not less than $1,000,000 per occurrence.

Schedule

Meetings must end on time so that the room can be cleared or prepared for other meetings. The classrooms and conference room must be vacated at least thirty minutes before library closing time.

Software Policy

Additional software can be added to the Library laptops if advance notice is given at least three weeks prior to a scheduled event or a fee will be incurred.

Depending on the complexity of the process of adding the software, the representative will be required to assist in installation.
