Where are the group study areas in the library?

Answer

There are several spots in the Library that are good for group study.

• 2nd Floor Study Area: Head up to the 2nd floor and take a left at the Serials sign - there you'll find a group study space featuring whiteboards, big tables, and large monitors with cables to connect to your laptop.

• Retriever Learning Center (RLC): The RLC is UMBC's best place for lively group study, scholarly discussion, collaboration, and academic coaching. This room features comfortable, mobile furniture so that students can design their own study spaces. Movable white boards and large monitors allow for collaboration.

• Reservable Study Rooms: These 20 rooms are available to any UMBC faculty, students, or staff. You can reserve one ahead up to five days in advance. Reservations are limited to 3 hours per person or group each day.

• Richard Roberts Seminar Room (140): This room in the RLC is available to UMBC students, faculty, and staff. It contains a small conference table, large-screen monitor, and a projector with cables to connect to your laptop. Reservations are limited to 2 hours per person or group each day.
