The Library’s mission to “connect people, inspire ideas, and transform lives” is achieved in part by the willingness of its customers to respect one another and coexist in library spaces. Physical and virtual library spaces are designed to be used for multiple purposes and are intended to be used by a diverse community of customers. Public library spaces are precious community assets that rely on the stewardship, mutual support, and goodwill of all.
Customers are participants in a shared, public use environment and must conduct themselves accordingly. They will be courteous, considerate, and understanding of library customers and staff. Customers are stewards of the public library. They will respect library resources and conduct themselves in a safe and orderly way. Customers will comply with federal, state, and local laws and policies.
Each customer has a personal responsibility to ensure that Lexington Public Library is a welcoming and safe public library environment for all. Customers are expected to understand that the library is a public place shared by many.
