Choosing where to study

Everyone’s ideal study space looks and feels different. That is why the Library comprises a whole series of spaces that look and feel very different. From the collaborative study spaces near the Library Café, which have an energising noise from gentle background chatter to the mixture of computers and soft seating in the rest of the Library and the rows of formal desks with dividers to minimise distraction from others in the Individual Silent Zone, there is somewhere for you, however you would like to study today.

What kind of space would suit you right now?

You can book a group study room in the library up to two weeks in advance if you want to practice a group presentation or just want to book a room exclusively for your group.  If you need a room and one has not yet been booked, you can just scan your card against the door control fob and let yourself in.  All our group study rooms come with either a plasma screen or projector so you can bring or borrow a laptop and practice your group presentations in private with no risk of disturbing anyone else.
