The UWM Libraries are dedicated to fostering an environment that supports both focused study and in-depth research while remaining welcoming and accessible to all patrons.
To help us maintain this atmosphere, we kindly ask you to observe the following guidelines:
- Respectful Conversations and Group Study: When engaging in conversation or group study, please be considerate of fellow library users. Remember that the third floor is designated for quiet study only, so maintain silence in that area to respect those who require a quiet environment.
- Minimize Disruptions: Please avoid any actions that might disrupt others’ use of the library. This includes refraining from using devices at a volume that could disturb those around you. Headphones should be used at a low volume to ensure minimal sound leakage.
- Silent Devices: Be mindful that devices that ring, beep, or make other audible noises can be highly distracting. We kindly ask you to silence your devices or switch them to vibrate mode while in the library. If you need to take a call, please step outside or to a designated area to avoid disturbing others.
We appreciate your cooperation in making the UWM Libraries a pleasant and productive space for everyone. Thank you for your consideration and respect for those around you!
