Lost+and+Found+items

General rules: Students and library staff will give any found items to the Access Services staff. The Access Services staff member will follow the guidelines below. Please note that all items will be examined for ownership by the Access Service Staff. Categories: 1. ** Books, jewelry, notebooks, clothing, mugs, **etc. will be placed on the "Lost and Found" shelf near the timeclock in circulation.

The remainder will be discarded. 2. ** Cell phones, Ipods, wallets, keys, chargers, flashdrives **, and any item of high value will be placed in the upper drawer of the Circulation File Cabinet.
