[ISLMA-Share] H.S that allow Food in the Library

[Email list for the Illinois School Library Media Association]

We’ve always allowed food and drink in the library and just ask that students keep it away from computers and other technology. Students often bring in their breakfast items, snacks, etc. before school, and it has never really been much of a problem. Spills happen on occasion, but kids are typically really good about it. We don’t make it a big deal unless there is a recurring problem, and they take care of us for the most part.

Hi my fellow librarian peeps,

We are trying to change the culture at my school to be more inclusive of allowing students to eat snacks in the library.  Are there any HS librarians that are willing to share their policy and experience with food?    Thanks in advance for all your help.

Best,
Jennette
