If your preschooler is going for their first library visit, it is important to go over some basic rules of etiquette. This will help them to feel comfortable in the library and to respect the rules that are in place. Below are 10 basic rules of library etiquette for your preschooler to know:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Every Library Has a \u201cQuiet Policy,\u201d so Use Indoor Voices<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is one of the most important rules to remember. Libraries are places where people go to read, study and work, so it is important to be respectful of the quiet atmosphere.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even though you are not supposed to be speaking loudly inside the library, there are still times when you may need to speak up in order to be heard. When you do, make sure to use an indoor voice so you don\u2019t disturb others.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Walk, Don\u2019t Run<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This rule goes hand-in-hand with being quiet inside the library. Not only is running around noisy, but it can also be dangerous if you accidentally knock into someone or something.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Don\u2019t Touch the Books You Don\u2019t Plan to Read<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It can be tempting for little ones to want to touch and hold <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">all<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of the books they can hold, but it is important to resist this urge. Some books are delicate and can be easily damaged if they\u2019re not handled with care, so we always want to touch only the books we plan on reading, and being kind to the books we interact with.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be Careful With the Furniture<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Just like the books, the furniture inside the library is also delicate. Don\u2019t climb on the chairs or desks, and be careful not to knock them over.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Return Books to the Shelves<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you have finished looking at a book, make sure to put it back in its rightful place on the shelf, or return it to the front desk using the book return slot. This helps to keep the library organized and makes it easier for others to find the books they are looking for.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Put Garbage in the Bin<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have any garbage with you, make sure to dispose of it in the garbage bin. This includes food wrappers, gum, etc.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No Food or Drinks<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Speaking of food, it\u2019s important to remember that food and drinks are not allowed inside the library. Not only can they make a mess, but they can also attract pests.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Be Respectful of Others<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This rule encompasses a lot of different things. In general, it\u2019s important to be respectful of others\u2019 personal space, belongings and privacy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Follow Any Staff Instructions<\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If the staff asks you to do something, it is important to follow their instructions. They know what is best for the library and they are there to help you have a positive experience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">By following these rules of library etiquette, your preschooler will be sure to have a positive and enjoyable experience during their first visit to the library.
