Collaborative Study Area

A space for group work and conversation

Located across the second floor of the library, this space is designed for group work, so conversational noise is expected. However, please keep noise levels respectful—disruptive behaviour is not appropriate in an academic library and may be reported.

  1. Use headphones for all electronic devices, with volume kept low.
  2. These expectations also apply to the silent study rooms in this area, which are not soundproof.
  3. If noise is an issue, use the QR code on each table to report it.

Please Note: we cannot control loud typing or sounds coming from adjacent areas (e.g., renovations or special events).
