Marilynn,
I usually have at least two interns working with me at one time and it  
does not bother me when they are listening to their ipod while working  
on cataloging but if I can hear it then it is to loud and I will ask  
them to turn it down. I do not however like it when they have any  
electronic device with them when they are working with the public.   
They may use their phones when away from the public and only then on  
their lunch break.  I state this in my intern handbook that they  
receive when the are accepted for the internship.  I hope this helps.

Sincerely,

Christa McCay
