(A) The Library is happy to provide various story hours for the enjoyment of the children in this community.
(B) In order to continue to provide story hours, certain rules must be followed for the safety and enjoyment of the children enrolled in story hour activities as well as others using the library during story hour presentations.
(1) Children must be between the ages specified in the story hour advertisements or informational sheets and brochures. Story hours are offered for toddlers 18 months old through 2 years and pre-schoolers 3 to 6 years.
(2) Small children not in the story hour presentation must be under the immediate supervision of a parent or guardian who is at least 18 years of age.
(3) Children who cry or are otherwise disruptive shall be taken from the library environment. Loud or disruptive children infringe upon the rights of others using the library facility who need a semi- quiet environment for reading or study.
(4) Children cannot be permitted to crawl or run in the library. The library environment does not present a place where the above-mentioned activities can be tolerated. Small children shall remain in strollers or within the guardian's arms for their protection as well as for the protection of other library users and workers.
