Duffield Library Code

The main purpose of the Library is to provide a quiet environment for those who wish to study or read quietly and undisturbed by others. Therefore please be considerate and only come in if you are happy to respect the needs of others and conform to the requirements of the library.

Group work can become noisy and disruptive. Work in pairs may be acceptable as long as nobody else can hear. No more than two people should be working at one computer.

Computers should be used exclusively for work. No games, no Social networking, no e-mail except to collect or send work between school and home.

This means that any essential talk should be conducted in a quiet voice so that only the person spoken to can hear.

Particularly at busy times everyone in the Library should be here to work, read or play chess. It is not a social area.

Mrs Friel is sole arbiter of acceptability of noise levels and behaviour.

If you are asked to leave the library you are expected to go without argument or delay – even if you think it unfair.  

Life is unfair!
