WHO CAN USE ROOM 407 The Library conference room is available for use by CAMPUS GROUPS whenever the event does not interfere with normal library operations. AP-AA-04.3 excludes the library from the classroom pool. This room may not be used for general instruction or for externally funded special academic program activities, which must be approved and scheduled through the Registrar’s Office, ext. 6996. The conference room is restricted to events sponsored by the University and approved by Library Administration. Reservations requests are submitted through the Room 407 Reservation Application. All reservations will be confirmed in advance by email.
ACCOMMODATIONS The maximum room capacity is 196 people set up in an audience configuration. Approximately 50 people can be seated at tables for workshops. The Library has on hand approximately 70 chairs and 12 tables. The person requesting the room must make arrangements for room set-up with ABM (x6675) at least a week in advance. We highly recommend that they contact ABM the day before the event to confirm room arrangement. Library staff are not available to assist. Arrangements must also be made to have the room vacuumed and furniture put back in its original position after the event.
