PLEASE STOP bringing your coffee into the 5th floor Special Collections room! The sign is by the door, where you all pause to read if you are allowed to come in to study. It tells you the hours we are open, and then below states, "No food, No drinks, No cell phones. Quiet study." So why do you all waltz in with your vanilla bean lattes thinking it's okay? The reason we ask this is because we have RARE AND SPECIAL BOOKS. Liquids and mice will destroy these precious, old, IRREPLACEABLE (c.1600-1700) books—not to mention the records, CDs and music equipment. If you want to drink or eat, step outside. Did you ever consider that there are rules for a reason? —Book-Lover-Becoming-Student-Hater
