There are two group study rooms located in the Library. The Study Abroad/Group Study Room is on the second floor to the right. It has a table, comfortable seating, a chalkboard and a reference collection of books and videotapes on studying, living and traveling abroad. This room also has a computer with Microsoft Office and Internet access as well as a TV you can use to watch entertainment and foreign language channels, DVDs or videos.

The other room is located on the basement level to the left. It has a large table, chairs and a TV you can use to watch entertainment and foreign language channels, DVDs or videos.

Please note: More than 100 TV channels are available: the kinds of channels you are used to watching for entertainment as well as some Spanish and French language channels for students in the Modern Languages Department (Univision and TV5). Local channels and PBS are also available.

These two rooms are good places for students to work or study together. A group of about five people can comfortably use each group study room.

Using the calendar posted near each group study room door, you may reserve a room for up to two hours per day. However, since access to the rooms needs to be maximized, you cannot sign up for the same time period day after day or week after week.

To reserve a group study room over the telephone, please call the reference desk at 716-286-8022.

There is also a silent study room located on the second floor of the Library to the right with tables, comfortable chairs and study carrels. The silent study room may not be reserved.
