Are we allowed to do group work in the library?
What are you allowed to do and what are you not allowed to do in the library? Join us in our series about the library's rules and help us make the library into a cozier study environment!
Yes, you are allowed to do group work in the library. The library is a workplace for students, and therefore, there are group workspaces scattered throughout the library. But! You must show consideration and speak in a low tone. If you know that you will need to talk a lot, for example, if you have a lot to discuss or if you are practicing for an oral presentation, it's better to book a group room.
Sometimes you need a break from studying, that is normal. However, it's common for your voice volume to rise when you start talking about the latest TV series you watched or the party you attended over the weekend, or when you start joking and laughing with each other. While it's pleasant and healthy to laugh, it might not be so suitable when you are in the library. Try to remember to keep the volume down even when talking about funny things. Or take your break outside the library! A quick walk and some fresh air can do wonders for study concentration!
