Food and drink policy

Take care of our collections, our resources, and our library.

To ensure the protection and preservation of library material, equipment, and furnishings, and to provide a comfortable and appealing environment for all library users, the UTSC Library has instituted a food and drink policy.

  • The Library permits food and drink, within reason, to be consumed at study tables and carrels
  • Library staff members reserve the right to determine which food and drink items are acceptable

Acceptable:

  • Snack foods that do not disturb those around you
  • Drinks in spill-proof containers 

Non-acceptable:

  • Food that is aromatic or messy (pizza, fries, pasta, etc.)
  • Open drink containers
  • Alcoholic beverages
  • Meals

Please be considerate, and use appropriate trash receptacles to clean up after yourself. Thank you for helping us maintain a clean and welcoming study area for all students.
