reserving a group study room

• Reservations are recommended. Upon the Group's arrival at the Library, they must sign in at the Reference Desk.
• If a group wishes to use a room and they have not made a reservation prior to arriving at the library and there is a room available, they must check in at the Reference Desk and sign in with the faculty librarian.
• Staff will write one student's name on the sign-in sheet after checking ACC ID. To maintain privacy, students will not have access to the list of names on the sheet.
• Rooms must be reserved in person by an ACC student (who is part of the group) with a valid ACC photo ID at the Reference Desk.
• Rooms cannot be reserved by telephone, e-mail, IM, Twitter or chat because current ACC student IDs cannot be verified with those methods.
• ACC students with valid ACC IDs may reserve the study room up to one week in advance.
• Group Study rooms are available for up to two hours at one time. More time may be requested by the group after the two hours if the room has not been requested by another group.
• Group Study rooms will be held for 10 minutes past scheduled time before being reassigned to another group.
• No semester-long scheduling is available.
