The Health Sciences Library has 13 group study rooms for formal classes, small conferences, and meetings. When not reserved by groups, these rooms are available to individuals. A reservation system is in place to balance the need for group facilities with that of regular study spaces.

The Library also has 7 study rooms available for individual or small group study on the second floor. These seven rooms do not have computers, projectors, or screens.

Room Sizes and Formats

The Library group study rooms can accommodate up to 10-15 individuals, and there are three sets of combination rooms that can open to accommodate up to 30 individuals (suitable for classes). To reserve the Library's larger computer classrooms, please see the Computer Classroom Reservations and Policy page. All group study rooms have network connections, LCD projectors, and white boards.
