Carrels, Lockers, and Shelves

Carrels

Carrels are assigned study areas for students wishing to have their own space to collect materials and study. All library materials must be charged out when kept on carrels. All carrels are assigned each fall for the entire academic year.

Registration: Carrel registration for seniors working on their theses begins the first Monday of Fall Term (September 14th in 2009). Other seniors may register on the Tuesday, and all other students may register for carrels beginning on Wednesday.
