Study Room Policy and Procedures, Library Policies

Monsignor William Barry Memorial Library offers the use of study rooms to all Barry University students.  Students must adhere to the following guidelines:

• Group Study Rooms are provided for groups of 2 or more individuals for the purpose of studying and meeting. Group Study Rooms are not available for individual use. You must have at least one other person with you when checking out study room keys.
• During the last 2 weeks of each semester, there will be no specific study rooms assigned to specific schools or programs.  All study rooms will be checked out on a first come, first serve basis.
• The Library is not responsible for the loss or theft of personal property. If you leave the room unattended, you risk the loss of your possessions.
• Food is not allowed in study rooms. Sports bottles and covered beverage containers are permitted. Please do not cover the windows. This is a security issue.
• A valid Barry University ID Card is required to check out a room. Other forms of identification are not acceptable.
• A key for Designated Group Study rooms must be charged out at the Circulation Desk on the 2nd Floor. There is a non-renewable three (3) hour limit per group and the room must be occupied during this time.
• You are responsible for the key (which is charged to your library account), the behavior of each person in the group, and the condition of the room. If the key is not returned, there will be a replacement fee of $20.00.
• At the end of three (3) hours, the key must be returned to the Circulation Desk. Overdue fines will be assessed at the rate of $1 dollar per minute.
• Failure to follow these rules may result in the immediate relinquishing of the room.

The following is a list of study rooms in the Monsignor William Barry Memorial Library.  Some rooms are designated for specific programs.
