Study Spaces

The library has plenty of space for SUNY Cortland faculty, staff and students to study alone or in groups. Our first two floors are for group study, with the two floors above for those who prefer quiet. There are also several group study rooms in the library with either white boards or flat screen monitors, which current students can check out by visiting the circulation desk.  These are available on a first-come, first-serve basis, if they are not already reserved as described below.

There are also 34 study carrels available lining the walls of the 4th floor designated as quiet space. These small rooms allow for studying individually and are available on a first-come, first-serve basis to SUNY Cortland students, staff or faculty.
