As part of the 4th floor renovation, CECH Library reimagined the study room located in 400B to be a space where learners of all kinds can be successful. The room includes a shelf of study and focus tools, part of the Study & Focus Tools Collection (STFC), for your use while in the space.
In addition to the enhancements below, wall art was added to space to make it more inviting and colorful.
Choose your own lighting
The room’s overhead lights are on a dimmer switch so you can adjust the brightness to your preferences. Not a fan of fluorescent lighting? There is also a floor lamp. The lamp has three LED lamp heads that operate independently. Each lamp head can be adjusted for both brightness and color temperature.
Supporting your focus
Our study room has its own set of SFTC items, available to anyone using the space. This includes a variety of fidgets, a weighted lap pad, blue light glasses, a small timer, and more! These items are designated to live in the study room. If you are interested in borrowing an item from the library, check out the shelf of SFTC items on CECH Library’s 3rd floor, by the board games and stairs.
Volume controls
Enjoy our private study room with the right amount of noise for you. The SFTC shelf has sound-blocking headphones and a white noise machine. The white noise machine has 30 sounds and a sleep timer.
Get comfortable
Study is hard work so you should at least be comfortable. Our space has a comfortable armchair in addition to a round table with four chairs on wheels. Feeling antsy? Try standing on the wobble board! It might even help you think.
The study room is available by reservation only. Make a reservation on 25Live and check in at the CECH Library front desk at the time of your reservation. Hope to see you soon!
