Aside from individual/group study rooms and labs, the library has several other spaces that can be reserved for events.
- The Lobby is perfect for a larger event, such as Edible Books.
- The Vestibule is the ideal location to have a bake sale, set up a donation box, juggle, or display art!
- The Porch is a great space to reserve for outdoor events. Since it's covered, it stays shaded on a sunny day and dry on a rainy one.
To ensure that these spaces are available, please make a reservation.
