The 3rd and 4th floors are our quiet study floors, where talking is not advised. The library has a variety of furniture arrangements to accommodate each learning style, and you are welcome to re-arrange any furniture on wheels for your convenience. Additionally, in our Library Commons on the 1st and 2nd floor, we have over 1,300 electrical outlets to accommodate your laptop and mobile device needs.
