Info

S. Livingstone Identification Residents of MBL housing must carry an MBL-issued ID at all times. Keys Keys to the housing facility are distributed at check-in and collected at check-out. Residents are responsible for their keys. Please lock your door(s) and carry your keys whenever leaving your room/apartment/house/cottage. Failure to return your key at check-out will result in a $60 charge. Loss of Personal Items The MBL is not responsible for the loss of personal effects and recommends the use of lockable luggage. We recommend that you consult your Homeowner’s/Renter’s Insurance policy for coverage. Noise The MBL houses large numbers of people with varying schedules and needs in close quarters. The need for sleep, study, and research supersedes all other activity. While at the MBL please be a good neighbor to other MBL guests and our neighbors in the surrounding community. Please monitor your noise level at all times and lower your noise level when asked to do so by any member of the MBL or Woods Hole community. Parties/Gatherings Dormitories and Apartments: All parties/gatherings for dormitory and apartment residents must be scheduled in advance and must take place in designated MBL function space. Please contact Liz McCarthy, Assistant Director of Conferences, Housing, and Dining Services (508-289-7214; e-mail conferences@mbl.edu) to schedule a party. Cottages: Gatherings of 15 - 50 people must be registered 7 days in advance with the Housing Coordinator Deb Deering (508-289-7213). Gatherings must conclude by midnight and must have a specific guest list. No flyers may be posted for cottage gatherings. No gatherings of more than 50 people will be permitted in the cottage areas (but may be scheduled in designated MBL function space.) Please contact Liz McCarthy, Assistant Director of Conferences, Housing, and Dining Services (508- 289-7214; e-mail conferences@mbl.edu) to schedule a party. 16
Pets Pets are not allowed in any dormitory, apartment, or house. However, a limited number of cottages have been designated as “pet” cottages. Pets are allowed in those cottages with prior approval by the Housing Office. There is a $250 per pet security deposit (limit two pets). Should pets damage the cottage or disturb neighbors, the occupants may be asked to vacate the premises immediately and may jeopardize future housing privileges. The presence of pets in “non pet” cottages will result in immediate eviction. Additional charges per pet may be required. Propping Outside Doors The propping open of outside doors in any housing facility is strictly prohibited. Room Decorations Before decorating your room, please refrain from damaging the paint or plaster in the walls, displaying anything that may be offensive to your roommate or any member of the MBL community, or hanging cloth material from the ceiling or walls. Smoking Smoking is not permitted in any MBL housing facility. Smoking outside of the buildings is permitted 50 feet away from any entry. Storage The MBL does not provide off-season storage. Storage is available at local storage facilities. Personal items found in your room/suite/apartment/cottage/house after your departure will be kept in Lost and Found for a period of 30 days. Suspicious Activity Please report any suspicious activity to x7911 during business hours, the night watch staff at x7217 during evenings and weekends, and contact the local police department (9-911). Trash Removal Dormitories/Apartments/Wood Houses: Trash is removed by the housekeeping staff daily. Occupants are asked to place their trash in plastic bags and put it outside of their rooms/apartments. Cottages: Trash must be placed by the roadside by 7:00 AM on Mondays. Weapons The possession of weapons is strictly prohibited. The use of any material/instrument as a weapon is strictly prohibited and will be reported to the appropriate authorities. Windows/Screens Window screens may not be opened or removed at any time, nor should any materials be hung or suspended on the outside of a window. Entering or exiting a building through a window is strictly prohibited. During the cooler months it is recommended that windows be shut and locked whenever leaving the room. Broken window panes and screens should be reported to the Housing Office immediately. 17
