There are sanctions in place for anyone who disregards this requirement

3 Strikes

1st Strike:
  • a one week library account ban. A record of this will stay on your library account for the
    duration of your 
    course. You may make an appointment to speak to a senior member of staff who will
    explain the 3 Strike 
    sanctions and will consider reinstating your accounts.
2nd Strike:
  • two week library account ban. A record of this will stay on your account for the duration of your course.
3rd Strike:
  •  three week library account ban. A record of this will stay on your account for the duration of your course.
If it happens for a fourth time your library and network accounts will be closed for 6 months and you will not  be
 allowed into the LRC for 6 months. Your Head of Department will be notified and any reinstatement will 
be done in discussion with your department and the University Librarian.
In the new library (opening at Luton in July) there will be a cafe area on the ground floor and everyone will be able to
eat there and dispose of food waste appropriately
