Study Space

There are several types of study space in the Health Sciences Library, depending on your needs to work in a group or individually.

Group Study

The Learning Commons on the upper level of the library and the Heersink Reading Pavilion on the lower level are designed for group work, as are the fifteen group study rooms, including room 1B20 (the large group study room) . 

Individual Study

Quiet Study

The Reserve/Multimedia Area on the upper level, the eTables, carrels and chairs at the bottom of the stairs, and the History of Health and Medicine Room are all designated as quiet study; this means that conversations are to be kept low

Please note that the History of Health and Medicine Room contains a working collection and the Archives, so that staff will be working with patrons needing to use the materials in the room. 

Silent Study

There are 72 carrels by the windows at the back of the lower level which are for silent study; talking and cell phone use is prohibited.

Faculty of Health Sciences Graduate Student Study Room

Room 1B21 on the lower level features seven carrels and chairs; keys are available for each user. No pre-booking is required.
