Find Your Way Around

Floor Directories

Check out our floor directories for easy-to-see exact locations of servies and resources throughout the library.

Quiet floors

The fourth and fifth floor are designated quiet study areas. There is also a 24/7 Quiet Study Room on the first floor.

Reference and Research Help

On the first floor near the elevators you will find our Reference and Research Help room — but it's more than that.

You can find the latest popular books, the latest academic books, and current periodicals (that's "magazines" in library-speak). There are comfy chairs for you to read in pleasure.

And there are also computer stations, two computer labs, GIS-computer stations, a map and microfiche room and printers. Librarians and staff are available to answer your questions and help you out.

We've been voted best study space on campus for as long as we can remember and we hope to keep it that way.

Learning Commons

This is what we call our second floor. Here you will find eight collaboration rooms, lots of individual and group study rooms, and the Satellite TV Room. This is also the area that hosts many library events and exhibits like Science Cafe and Gallery at the Commons.

Computer Labs and Laptop/AV Check out

We have seven computer labs — three on the first floor and four on the second floor. You can check out laptops and AV equipment in the PolyConnect lab on the first floor.

Study Spaces

From collaboration rooms with 48" LCD screens and white boards to traditional study rooms to quiet study spaces, we have a place for you to get your work done.

Julian's Patisserie and Café

Yes, we've got coffee. And tea. And other drinks, and bakery items, and sandwiches, and salads, too. Julian's is located on the second floor of the library.

24-Hour Study Spaces

We now have three spaces open 24/7 including a quiet study area and a brand new computer lab. Now you can stay until your work gets done, or start studying as early as you need to.

The Stacks

That's what we call the bookcases that house all of our printed books. You'll find stacks on the third through fifth floors. See our floor maps for call number locations.

KEY TIP:We also have books online (we call these eBooks). You can find all books — traditional and online — in our online catalog, PolyCat.
