If we catch you with food, you will be told to take it outside or hand it over to the staff because we are seriously starving by three AM.<\/li>\n<li>Also, please do not put up your bare feet on the tables. \u00a0Sometimes students illegally eat off those tables.<\/li>\n<li>We believe students should get plenty of rest before their final exams.\u00a0 That\u2019s why we<em> only<\/em> offer coffee to students without exams the next day, who just want a little help to stay up late and watch cat videos on the internet.<\/li>\n<li>If you fall asleep in the library, please don\u2019t snore or drool on the tables.\u00a0 It is too sore a temptation for the librarians to prank you.<\/li>\n<li>We urge you to not sleep on the floors.\u00a0 The excellent custodial staff frequently come around to vacuum early in the morning, and they hate it when sleeping students get stuck in their machines.<\/li>\n<li>If you need last-minute, peer-reviewed scholarly articles, by all means, use our excellent <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/libguides.atu.edu\/az.php\" target=\"_blank\">collection of academic databases<\/a>.<\/strong>\u00a0 Just promise not to tell the other students you can access them from home.\u00a0 Then no one would want to visit us, and who would drink all this coffee?<\/li>\n<li>Come to the Reference Desk and tell us when you need help.\u00a0 There\u2019s no need to openly weep alone.\u00a0 Besides, it upsets the other library patrons.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Good luck to all taking finals this year, and remember to send us an <strong><a href=\"mailto:askalibrarian@atu.edu\" target=\"_blank\">email<\/a><\/strong>, keep up with us on <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/arkansastechlibrary\" target=\"_blank\">Facebook<\/a><\/strong>, or follow us <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ATULibrary\" target=\"_blank\">@ATULibrary<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0for news, announcements, or pictures of the library study scene during finals.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/clubpendy?src=hash\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1629 size-full\" title=\"Good luck!\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/blogs.atu.edu\/library\/files\/2015\/12\/lando.gif?resize=500%2C213\" alt=\"lando\" width=\"500\" height=\"213\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.atu.edu\/library\/files\/2015\/12\/snapsr.com-5667f88aa7e7175192d26b51a9ee7059.jpg\"><br \/>\n<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Come get your study on at the Ross Pendergraft Library the week of Dec. 6th-Dec. 11th as we go 24-hours for finals.\u00a0 This year marks the third semester of remaining open all night long, and if you haven\u2019t taken advantage of our extended hours, you are probably studying in the wrong place&#8230;or sleeping.\u00a0 As always, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1619","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-library","entry"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p3lPyb-q7","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.atu.edu\/library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1619","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.atu.edu\/library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.atu.edu\/library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.atu.edu\/library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/11"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.atu.edu\/library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1619"}],"version-history":[{"count":13,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.atu.edu\/library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1619\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1642,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.atu.edu\/library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1619\/revisions\/1642"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blogs.atu.edu\/library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1619"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.atu.edu\/library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1619"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blogs.atu.edu\/library\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1619"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
