All library study spaces are for solo study – there are no group study facilities. We encourage you to use MS Teams for group meetings.

No Food or drink is permitted in the library – (unless on health grounds – if you must eat or drink briefly remove your mask and replace after eating or drinking). However, drinking water is permitted.
