Study Room Policy

1. Group study rooms can be reserved by Southern Adventist University students, faculty, and staff.
2. Study rooms are primarily meant for groups. The persons whose name is on the reservation must be in the room. The name of the reservation must match the email address provided. Individuals are encouraged to use a study carrel, pod, or tables on the main floor and second floor. A silent study area on the second floor is also available for individual study.
3. Rooms can be reserved up to 30 days in advance, up to a maximum of three hours per day. The hours do not have to be sequential, nor must the reservations be for the same room.
4. Users should select a room appropriately sized to their study group. Smaller groups should use smaller rooms to keep larger rooms free for larger groups.
5. The primary purpose of the media viewing rooms (#017, #138, #224, and #226A) is for media/computer projection. Groups who will not be using projection resources should select a different room, if one is available.
6. Rooms can be reserved online at http://southern.libcal.com/booking/studyrooms.
7. Upon arrival, users must check in at the Circulation desk (for main floor rooms) or Media desk (for second floor rooms) or via the QR code on the study room door. Failure to do so will result in the loss of a reservation. Rooms are held for 15 minutes and then forfeited.
8. Users must not disturb other library patrons.
9. Users must clean and straighten the room when finished. They should turn off all equipment used, cap pens, erase boards, turn out lights, put trash in can, and close door. Users are responsible for any damage or loss.
10. Users must return all borrowed materials to proper locations.
11. Use of a room implies consent to follow the policies and rules of the library.
12. Reports of misuse may result in denial of room reservation privileges and other library services.
13. Special requests for atypical room use will be considered on a case-by-case basis. Users should contact a library team member in advance if they have a unique need.
