Do not despair if you are not able to reserve one of the 41 carrels this semester. Eleven carrels located along the west side of the terrace on Floor 1 of the library cannot be reserved and are open to all library users. You also may use a reserved carrel when the occupant is away – please just leave it tidy and as you found it, and vacate it if the student who has it reserved arrives.

There are two ground floor media and five group study rooms in 麦凯恩图书馆. To reserve one of the media or study rooms, visit the 图书馆预约页面. Rooms may be reserved throughout the day and up to two weeks in advance with a minimum use of 30 minutes and maximum use of two hours per day, 每个学生. Media rooms are designated for one or more users; group study rooms require two or more users.
The student making the reservation should come to the first floor Circulation Desk to retrieve and check out a key to the room they reserved. At the end of the reservation, 或之前, the key should be returned to the Circulation Desk for check-in to avoid overdue fees of $1.00 /小时.
To ensure equal availability for all students, media and study rooms have a two-hour reservation maximum. Users utilizing the spaces in groups can individually reserve a room, allowing the group to extend their reservation for more than two hours by coordinating back-to-back times.

研究Carrel预订
麦凯恩图书馆 has a limited number of study carrels (41) that can be reserved by eligible students for use during an entire semester. The intended purpose is to allow students doing library-intensive work a place to work undisturbed and keep their research materials together. Study carrels (11) located on the Main (first) floor of the library next to the terrace's west side cannot be reserved and are open to all patrons at all times.
有编号的carrel on the Ground floor, Stack 2, and Floor/Stack 3 may be reserved.

- Reserved study carrels are prioritized for undergraduate students enrolled in senior seminars and in upper-level, research-intensive courses (ex. 490s), but other students may submit a form.
- Reservations will happen by random lottery starting on the first day of classes, so a carrel is not guaranteed.
- 麦凯恩图书馆 staff will not be able to guarantee a specific carrel. Please note on the form the area or floor you would most like your carrel to be located and staff will try to accommodate your wish. Each carrel has a number if you wish to walk around and refer to those on the form.
- Reserved carrels may be used by anyone as long as they are vacant; please do not disturb books or belongings that are on a reserved carrel while you are using it.

Students with reserved carrels are reminded to always check out any library materials you place on your carrel so that they will show up as checked out and unavailable in WorldCat.
