Group Study Rooms/Presentation Practice Rooms
If you want to carry out group work in the library then why not book a private group study room and help to keep the library a quiet study environment?
The Drill Hall Library now has 2 group study rooms available to students. These can be booked for 2 hours for group work or practice for seminar presentations. Each room is kitted out with a PC and data projector.
Rooms can be booked by visiting the security and reception desk in the main entrance of the Drill Hall. Please make sure you present your student ID card when booking.
The Drill Hall also has an additional 3 open access group study rooms. Please ask at securityreception for location details.
