The library will charge $100 for replacing the key, plus a $35 processing fee.
We do not charge overdue fines for study room keys. Because rooms are booked in advance, we have two sets of keys. If you stay in a room longer than your allotted time, most likely another group will be entering the room when your reservation has ended.
If the room is booked by another group, that group may enter the study room, and you will need to leave.
Family Friendly Room! This room has two workstations and a play/reading area for children.
The library is not responsible for items left in the study rooms. Ideally, another library patron will bring your item to the 1st floor Circulation Desk, where we have a Lost and Found. You might also check the campus Lost and Found.
Beverages in covered containers are allowed, as are snacks. Please dispose of trash and keep the study room clean for the next group.
Yes, if you do not arrive within 30 minutes, your reservation will be cancelled.
There are large tables on the 2nd and 3rd floors of the library where groups can work together and talk. There is a walk-in “sandbox” area on the 1st floor, north end near the computer lab. You can borrow a laptop from the 1st floor Circulation Desk.
