Transgender bathroom – 2nd floor Library Addition

Just a reminder that the transgender bathroom is open and available and is located across from the elevators in the 24/7 area.
We have one Community user who identifies as female and who has asked repeatedly about using the Women’s bathroom. The user asks for the guard to check that it’s ‘ok’ to use the women’s room. Here’s the policy: this person must decide which restroom to use and accept whatever consequences ensue – we can neither refuse nor condone the user’s actions, but the user should be aware that if the bathroom is occupied and the occupant decides to call Public Safety, or asks us to call Public Safety (if we’re asked to call, we must), the matter is out of our hands. In effect, we are not the bathroom police.
