Group Study Rooms

The newly renovated first floor of the library has eight (8) new group study rooms.  These rooms may be reserved in-person at the Circulation Desk; you will need to fill out a sign up sheet and leave your student ID with the Circulation staff. 

A group is defined as 2 or more current SHU students.  Rooms can be reserved for a 90 minutes session and there is a 2 consecutive session maximum.  All are available on a first come, first serve basis. 

You MUST be a registered student at Sacred Heart University to use the space, as they are dedicated solely for the purpose of student group study. 

Policy:

• These rooms are for groups only.  A group is defined for study room purposes as being 2 or more current SHU students.
•  The room MUST be vacated when the group’s allotted time is over.
• If you arrive late, (15 minutes or longer past the time you have the room signed out for), the room may be given to the next group waiting.
• If you leave the room and take your items and ID with you, the room will be deemed VACATED and will be given to another group.
• If the person who signed out the room leaves early, another member of the group must amend the request form and leave their ID card.
• Only certain items will be available for check out to use in room, students must provide all other equipment and supplies.
• The noise level must be kept to a minimum since these rooms are not totally enclosed.
• Inappropriate behavior, as elsewhere in the library, will be cause for removal from the room and possibly barred from future use.
• The Library will not be responsible for loss of content from the students' computer files.
