Library Policies

The library welcomes everyone to use the library.  We host student and faculty events and meetings by appointment, and community events may also be scheduled, (usually for a fee unless the event is sponsored by the University). Presenters, guests, and attendees are expected to adhere to the Code of Conduct. Spaces in the library must be reserved in advance.

Please contact the library for details on how to reserve the following areas for an event, meeting, or conference.

1. The browsing area by the journals with a view of the lake (good for larger presentations, and events, yoga, and social gatherings such as weddings) Can seat up to 100.
2. Library outside patio (good for open mic night, poetry readings, yoga, and jam sessions). Can seat 20-30.
3. Southard Room (good for medium sized groups of 15-30).
4. The upstairs area by the group study room is a flexible area and can currently host 10-15 people. Good for small group studying, yoga, and meditation.

All spaces in the library must be reserved in advance, and any media (TVs, microphones, podium, projector, etc.) may also need to be booked separately. The library cannot book spaces on the same day as the event or meeting. Please contact the library with the request and details of the meeting or event at least 3 weeks in advance. Questions? Call (352) 588-8258.
