MUSIC RECORDINGS ARCHIVE - RULES OF ACCESS

1. Adhere to the BYU Honor Code and encourage others to do the same. The MRA is made available to students who wish to use the large collection of LPs. Those who are given permission are asked to adhere to the BYU Honor Code. Please treat the materials with respect and follow the rules. If you encounter others who are abusing their privileges we ask that you notify library personnel immediately. As the MRA cannot be surveyed at all times we ask your help in preventing theft and damage of the collections and equipment.

2. To access the MRA you need to be interviewed by David Day (HBLL 4425, ex. 2-6119, david_day@byu.edu) and have your name added to the list of authorized users. Student employees at the service desk will let you into the MRA which should remain locked at all times.

3. You CANNOT invited friends into the MRA who have not been authorized for access. PDA is completely inappropriate.

4. Handle the LPs with care. Never touch the surface of the disc with you hands or fingers.

5. Clean discs with the cleaner provided.

6. Return discs to their sleeves and jackets.

7. DO NOT reshelf the discs. Leave the used LPs on top of the carrels or on the designated sorting shelf. The Music Library needs to keep statistics on the use of the collection.

8. Do not bring any food or drink of any kind (including water) into the MRA.

9. Violation of any of these rules or other inappropriate conduct can result in suspension of privileges.
