Group Study Rooms
Is your group looking for a place to study? There are 12 group study rooms and getting your group into one of them is as easy as 1-2-3.
From the library home page in the Help box, click "Reserve a group study room." You can do this from any computer or you can use the dedicated comiputer at the Libraries' Media Circulation counter. See if a room is available right now or reserve one up to two weeks in advance.
The 12 rooms give you choices in size and equipment. 7 of the rooms have interactive white boards. See west.wwu.edu/atus/iBoard for more information.
A group may reserve a room for up to four hours per day. All you need is your WWU ID and at least two group members to pick up a key at the Media Circulation desk. Please talk to the folks at the Media desk if you have any questions.

Library Maniacs
Submitted by lib_marketing on Fri, 10/17/2008 - 2:12am
The Library Maniacs is a new advisory group of students who not only appreciate the library but want to get involved in a fun way to help the library become even better. During club meetings we'll have fun brain storming sessions for ideas for events and services that would help you the student make better use of the library and your time. I'll pass all of the ideas we generate on to the library faculty and staff to see what we can do to make your ideas come to life.
You can find us on Facebook at either wwulibrary@gmail.com or "fi spooner".
