Silent Study Room – that’s right, this room is 100% silent. It’s Room 12, along the west wall of the library basement. The room seats 8 people, and everyone in the room takes a vow of silence, which includes no talking, whispering, cell phones, etc.!

Quiet Study and Group Study Areas – Use the library floorplans to identify officially-designated quite areas and group study rooms. Room 121 on the first floor will be open in the evenings as an additional study area.

Individual Study Rooms – These small rooms are along the walls on the east side of the basement. While some of these are reserved, others are open and available on a walk-up basis.

Extra Computers – During the last weeks of the semester, the library will open the instruction classroom, Room 30 in the basement, which can be used as another computer lab. Please note there is no printer available in Room 30.
