Cecil H Green Library reviews
2 Expansive building and massive book collection, lower lighting on the upper stories.
Available to the public with signing in at kiosk, presenting ID, answering questions that you just filled out about yourself, and being printed out a day pass. Upon exit they will want to look inside your bag.
The more modern furniture is on the main floor and that gets pretty full at certain times of day. The second floor has the lovely Lane Humanities study room and the windows and long wooden tables give it a classical feeling, just avoid the couple of very creaky wooden chairs and spare yourself the embarrassment.
On the 3rd floor are the more general book collections and is currently partially under construction. There are work and study desks along the walls, furniture is like stepping back into the 90s. The loveliest room is the Bender reading room on the 5th floor.
All in all, descent spot to study. Uni wifi, bathrooms on each floor, but you do have to have an ID and you'd think the university could afford some updated furniture.
Deep resource for serious research. Official Govt depository. Book scanner. Conference rooms. Quiet. Restricted.
