Good selection of books. Reserve study rooms ahead of time, WAY ahead of time for midterms or finals. Avoid it during finals time, too. Most students are so rude and loud, it’s insane. I don’t know why they don’t have somebody enforcing rules when it’s like that. A couple of weeks ago I tried to go study and some girl was talking to two guys about she has no gag reflexes I wanted to throw myself down the elevator shaft in a blatant form of protest. In the words of Lori Beth from All That: QUIET! THISIS A LI-BARRY!!!

Probably the best place to study in town. I’ve been on a hunt for a while now, studying for the boards. In the summer it’s as quiet as can be. Head to the fourth floor for great views or private study rooms to lock yourself in to. I wish they would update the chairs. Cushioning is shot and they are quite hard. I will easily pay the $ 5 fee to park close(it’s too hot to walk) and study here.

This is probably the nicest library in the whole city. All colleges need a quite place for students to go and study. The Walter Stiern library is one of the newer buildings on campus with computer labs in the basement, librarians and help desk on the first floor, and books, desks and study rooms on floors two through four. I think the library could be open longer hours and have more study rooms. I think this library is actually better than the one at BC even though BC has more students. Considering the budgeting problems and small student body, the Walter Stiern library is a really good resource for students.
