We have listened to your comments about the availability of Group Study Rooms in the Oviatt Library. To make group study rooms available to more students we have made a change in how these rooms can be used.
- Group Study Rooms are available for currently enrolled CSUN and CSU students and can be checked out on a first come, first served basis.
- CSUN students have priority use of rooms.
- During the Fall and Spring semesters, Group Study Rooms will remain locked until an eligible group checks out the room.
- Group Study Rooms 212, 220, 221, 222, 223, 224, 225 on the 2nd floor are reserved for groups of 2 or more.
- Group Study Rooms 312, 320, 321, 322, 323, 324, 325 on the 3rd floor are reserved for groups of 3 or more.
- Group Study Rooms 412, 420, 421, 424, 425 on the 4th floor are reserved for groups of 3 or more.
- Check-out contract must be signed by all members of the study group.
- CSUN and CSU photo IDs, of the required minimum number of students, are held in the Circulation area for the duration of the check-out period.
- The check-out period is 3 hours.
- Groups may renew the room at the due time, if there is no one waiting.
- Rooms may be checked out upon library opening and up to 1 hour prior to library closing.
- If the number of students falls below the required minimum, for 10 minutes or longer, the room reservation may be cancelled and privileges forfeited.
- Maximum occupancy limits must be adhered to or group study room privileges may be lost.
- Windows are not to be covered or obstructed.
- The lights must be on at all times.
- The entire group will lose Group Study Room privileges if a single member violates the University Code of Conduct or Library Rules of Behavior.
