Graduate Student Study Room and Lockers
Cal Poly grad students have access to a study room that includes computers and a printer; modular furniture (reconfigure the room for personal or group work); and mobile lockers (very cool!) available for 21- or 90-day checkout, and more. Fixed hall lockers are also available on the Library's second floor for 90-day checkout.
The library sponsors its own exhibits and considers requests to provide temporary/rotating space for academic departments, student groups recognized by the university, and faculty and students who wish to sponsor an exhibit.
