During the regular semester, the library is open seven days a week. Certain days and times are designated as card swipe access only. You MUST have a TNU ID to enter the library during those designated times.
Graduate study rooms are reservable. Click here to reserve a room by day and time. Then, when you arrive at the library, check in with student workers at the Information Services Desk to check out the key to the reserved room. You'll need your TNU ID or Driver's License to check out. Don't forget to return the key when done.
Because these rooms are only short-term, personal and library materials will not be left in the study rooms after the key has been returned to the Information Services Desk. View the video below to learn how to reserve a graduate study room.
