When visiting the WCTC Library, you are encouraged to:

Enjoy food and beverages while you are using resources in the Library. We do ask that all beverages be in a covered container to reduce the risk of spilling. Food is available for purchase at the HUB in the C Building.

Keep your personal belongings in your control at all times. For security reasons, items should not be left unattended. Library staff may remove items left for more than 15 minutes and turn them in to Lost and Found. The Library is not responsible for items left unattended.
