How Do I...?

The Van Ness campus library offers study rooms for group and individual study. Please inquire with library staff to book a study room. 

Study room use policies:

• Study rooms are intended for the use of the UDC community and UDC students, faculty, and staff have priority. Non-UDC patrons may use study rooms if one is available but will be asked to relocate if a UDC patron wishes to use the room.
• Study rooms are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
• Individual study rooms (B103A, B103B, B103C, and B103D) are for 1-2 people.
• Group rooms (B319 and B320) are for 2+ people (maximum 8). 2+ people MUST be present in order to book a group room.
  • If all individual rooms are occupied but group rooms are available, one person may be assigned to a group room. However, if a group requests the room, the individual will be asked to relocate.
• The Family-Friendly study room offers adult computer workstations and kid-friendly toys, books, and furniture. It is available on a first-come first-serve basis. Children who come to the library MUST be accompanied by an adult AT ALL TIMES. 
• Bookings are for a maximum of two hours. Patrons may stay beyond their reservation if no one else is waiting for a room but will be asked to relocate if they have been in the room for more than two hours and another user is waiting.
• Patrons should inform staff when they vacate a study room so that it can be made available for other users.
• Patrons must provide their name and email address in order to book a study room. Name and email data will be deleted at the end of each semester.
• Patrons are responsible for keeping the study rooms clean.
• Persistent non-compliance with study room policies, defined as three warnings over the course of the semester, will result in a loss of room booking privileges for one month.
