No reservations are required to use the group and individual study rooms.

The Library is divided into study zones.

Floor 1

The first floor is a collaboration zone. Groups are welcome to meet in study rooms or in the open study space. Normal conversational sound levels are expected. 

Floor 2

Library users seeking a quieter study floor will find this on the second floor. Researchers on this floor expect others to keep conversation levels low (whispers). Rooms 41 - 46 are Group Study rooms.  No reservations are needed to use these rooms. There are 28 individual study rooms on this floor. These rooms are designed for a maximum of two students.

Floor 3

Library users seeking silence will find this on the third floor. Group work is discouraged on this floor in favor of individual work. This floor also hosts the Midlo Center, the Honors Program, and the Innovation Lab. These three spaces are excluded from the "silence is golden" policy on this floor.

Floor 4

Scholarly and quiet are expected of students on this floor. No reservations are needed to use these rooms. This floor also has a Quiet Computer Lab and Quiet Study Space for student use.

No Reservations are required to use the group or individual study rooms

Only currently enrolled UNO students may use these rooms.  There are 16 group study rooms for students for group work and 20 individual study rooms. Please note that the University Administration or the Library may reserve these rooms for special events such as the Homer Hitt Scholarship interviews and InnovateUNO. Please ask for assistance at the Library Services Desk to locate these rooms or check the library's floor maps.

Take care of our study rooms! The groups or individuals who use the rooms are responsible for keeping them clean and free from graffiti. The Library will document users who do not clean up after using the room. Repeated issues with cleanliness and/or graffiti will lead to the suspension of reservation privileges. Rooms that are too dirty for use will be removed from the schedule until they can be cleaned.
