Can I bring food and drinks into the library?
To maintain Jennings Library's collections, furnishings and study environment, we have adopted the following policies regarding food and drink in the library:
Can I use my cell phone in the library?
Please do not talk on your cell phone while on the third floor of the library, which is a designated quiet study space. If you must take a call in other areas of the library, please keep conversations short and talk quietly to avoid disturbing other library users.
Where can I go for a quiet place to study?
The Rotunda on the third floor of the library is a designated quiet study space. There are also a few desks tucked away at the back of the circulating stacks on all three floors of the stacks.
Where can I go to study with a group?
There are three Group Study Rooms on the third floor of the library. These rooms are intended to accommodate students, faculty, and staff working on group projects or studying together. Priority will be given to students using them for group projects. The rooms are equipped with whiteboards and markers and some have Aquos Boards, touch screen computers mounted on the wall. If none of the rooms are available, you can work collaboratively in the Learning Commons or the Reference Room.
Can I hold a meeting or office hours in a Group Study Room?
These rooms are intended to be used by students working on group projects or studying together. Instructors should inquire about using the Adjunct Office or the Collaborative Meeting Space (Library 101) for office hours, meetings, or small group events.
