Here are some of the study spaces the library offers:

Reading room -- This is the glassed-in room right inside the library.  This room provides armchairs, some tables, and a bar where you can sit and study.  You can take Zoom classes here as well. Sound level: low conversation.

Main library room -- This is the area that contains the circulation desk, the reference desk, and the banks of computers. You can hold a conversation, but be respectful of others around you. Sound level: low to intermediate.

Library classroom  -- This is the room right across from the library's circulation and reference desks.  You can study in this room as long as it is not needed for library classes or meetings. Sound level: quiet zone.

Alcoves -- There are two alcoves in the library, to each side of the book stacks. Everything in this area is a quiet zone, so please remain silent or move to an area that allows conversation. Sound level: quiet zone.

Study rooms-- These rooms are for quiet study for individuals and groups, and for Zoom classes. Groups can reserve the study rooms; individuals can use them as long as the rooms are not in use. Sound carries, so be respectful of students in other study rooms and keep your voice low.  Sound level: low conversation.

The library's Circulation desk is the place to borrow materials from the library, either to take home or to use in the library. Here are some of the things you can check out:

• Books (note that books marked on reserve can only be used in the library)
• Laptops with cameras (useful for many things, including taking proctored exams)
• A&P models
• Phone chargers
• Headphones
• Printers

Make sure to have your college ID with you when you want to check out something, especially if you're checking out something to take home. If you don't have a student ID card, visit the college's security office to get one. It's a fast, painless process.

The library has two printers/copiers. Copies cost five cents per side for black-and-white and 25 cents per side for color. The copiers only accept coins or bills and will give change. You cannot print from a personal device. If you have a personal laptop, you must upload the document or email it to yourself and print it from a library computer.
