The library offers a variety of study spaces from enclosed group study rooms to individual study carrels where you can quietly cram for your next quiz. There are comfortable seating options throughout, along with more traditional desks and chairs. Please contact the library at libtech@oit.edu if you have any questions.

Library Study Room Policy

Reservations

Oregon Tech Students, Faculty, and Staff may reserve Study Rooms up to one (1) week in advance.  When reserving the room, you will be asked for the number of people in your group.  Reservations will be held until 15 minutes after the beginning of the scheduled time period.  After 15 minutes, the room may be reassigned.  Reservations may be made through the library catalog, or by stopping by the Library Help desk.

 

Check Out Procedures

Study room keys are available for checkout with an Oregon Tech ID at the Library Desk.   Keys should be checked out immediately prior to use of the room.  The person who checks out the room key is responsible for upholding the policies, maintaining the security of the room, and returning the key.

If you need more time, check with the Library Desk.  If the room is not reserved by another group, you may have the option to renew your time.
