[OPLINLIST] Food Options in Libraries

[Georgiana]

Hi, Brenda,
We originally did not allow food anywhere in the library, but after thinking 
about it, we realized that we didn't forbid small children from having 
bottles or "sippy cups."  Now we just ask patrons not to sit at the 
computers with food or drinks.  So far, it hasn't really been a problem.

I am interested to hear from any libraries who:

Allow food and drinks to be brought into their library reading rooms, 
computer areas, etc.?
Have you experienced any problems?
Has clean-up been an issue?


Would anyone who has food services (cafe, vending machines, coffee carts) 
share information about their experiences?
Does your library or Friend's group arrange this service?

You may respond to the list or if you wish to e-mail me directly, send 
response to bcharny@gcpl.lib.oh.us

Thank you,
Brenda Charny
