Reserve a room at Cowles Library for a Special Event

Cowles Library’s main special event area consists of the Reading Room and the adjacent atrium area. Other potential event spaces include the Glassed-in Room (Room 201), the Collier Heritage Room, and the Electronic Classroom. These areas are primarily used as a study space or a classroom for the university community. It may not be reserved for events during final examinations periods and/or study days. You may review the schedule but note that just because the time/space is available does not guarantee the request will be approved. The Library Dean has the final approval/denial of library space usage.

Review the policy/procedure document for specific information about the room options, available furnishing and other equipment. Photos of the spaces are also included.
