Library, IES Västerås

​

• BE QUIET!  This is a place of studying, of information finding and of reading. Any disturbance of the peace may mean that you will be asked to leave the library.

 

• HAVE A REASON TO BE HERE!  The library is not a place to hang out or for waiting for your science class to start, neither is it a place to hang out when you find the student lounge too noisy. THIS IS A PLACE OF WORK.

 

• ENGLISH. The language used in the library is English. If there are words you do not know in English, ask the librarian for help.

 

• SIT ON A CHAIR. Do not sit on tables, shelves or on the floor. If there is no empty seat, you will have to stand up.

 

• PUT IT BACK!  If you have looked at a book and decided you do not want to borrow it, put it back exactly where you found it!

 

• BRING YOUR LIBRARY CARD/CODE. To make borrowing books run smoother, you will need to have either your library card or the code given to you by your mentor.

• ​

• RESERVATIONS. If the book you wanted to borrow is not in, you can reserve it. This means that you will be notified as soon as the book comes back, and you can come in and borrow it.  Your reservations will wait for you for two weeks before going back on the shelf.  

​

• AGE! Some books are not suitable for younger children and the librarian has the final say in whether you can borrow a certain book.

 

• RETURNS! All returned books must be dropped either in the box by the entrance, or through the wall by the library unless you are told differently by the Librarian.
