Library Study Room News

2 Hour Reservations!
Just in time for final exams, we have updated our reservation limits from one to two hours. When making your reservation online, use the drop-down menu to choose your booking time from 15 minutes to 2 hours.  

Check in / Check out •
With the updated time period, it is no longer necessary to make two reservations. Check in at the start of your reservation and check out when you leave.

Make Your Reservation  •
Why? A reservation guarantees the study room is available to you at the scheduled time. Reservations take precedent over casual use. Patrons using a study room without making a reservation may be asked to vacate. If the room you have reserved is occupied, go to the circulation desk and report the problem.
