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.
