Laptop Etiquette
As the use of Wireless network, Falk Library in Falk Library grows, the need for laptop etiquette increases as well!
Please do not drape power cords across aisles and walkways. This presents safety hazards to yourself and others, and could damage your computer if someone trips over your cord. If you must use a power cord for your laptop, place yourself within easy reach of an outlet. In Falk Library, the best places for laptop work are:
- The tables along the walls of the quiet study area on the main floor (turn right after entering the library);
- The laptop tables in the CMC (in the hallway near Classroom 1);
- The enclosed 'fish bowl,' area on the main floor, where every carrel has an electrical outlet;
- Wherever you see 'Laptop Power Cord Friendly' signs on tables.
Also, please keep the volume on your headphones as low as possible, as some headphones emit sounds discernable to others when audio files are played at a high volume.
