Semester hits high gear

It's that time in term when students begin to think about papers & final projects, conducting research, and preparing for upcoming finals.



Predicatably, the Alexandria Campus Library is busier than ever.




Students coming to library are studying independently...



...Using Group Study Rooms (there are now 5 group study rooms in the Library, available on a first-come, first-served basis. 4 of the rooms are appropriate for groups of 4 or fewer, while one is larger)...




...finding a comfortable place to read...






...checking out books (in record numbers)...




...using Reserve Materials (especially Text Books! did you know that Alexandria students account for almost half of the total college reserve use?)...





...using laptops (the Library supports wireless as well as wired laptop use)...


...and yes, even using Library computers (students generally experience at least some wait to find a vacant computer)...


...and just like at home, the Living Room is the scene of many a project...


What does Your Library have for you?
