The quiet zone

Over the next few weeks, please be extra careful to keep the noise level in the Library as low as possible so we can provide law students and other Library visitors with a quiet place to study.

Here are a few things to keep in mind:

  • When it comes to noise, the biggest source of complaints is from talking. So if conversation is necessary, keep it brief and be attentive to how well others can hear you. Even whispers can carry quite far in some parts of the Library.
  • The computer lab and group study rooms are not entirely sound-proofed, so your classmates nearby can definitely hear it if things get boisterous.
  • We encourage you to try the lower level if you’re hoping to minimize distractions.
  • We also encourage all law students to contact anyone on the Library staff with Library-related questions or concerns.
