Library Essentials: How to book a study space

Booking Rooms

Study spaces can be pre-booked here.

Click "Book a Group Study Room"

This screen shows which rooms are available, and when. Blue means the room is available, Yellow will show any bookings you have created, and Red shows any time the room is not available.

Click on one of the rooms on the right hand side to bring up more information about that room.

You can also book each individual room from this screen.

The Booking Process

You can apply filters for the rooms that you want to book.

Click "Go to date" in order to select which date you want to book the room.

Select the time you want to book the room for, and click on it.

The system will automatically book a two hour time slot. You can change this in the drop down at the bottom of the screen.

You can only reserve one booking, and 120 minutes per day. If you exceed this LibCal will tell you and not allow you to book. Click the rubbish bin to delete a booking if this message appears. You can, however, book rooms at the same time over separate days.

Click submit times to submit the booking. You will need to log in with your university user name and password to confirm the booking.

After this you will need to submit a title for the meeting, along with how many people are attending.

You will have to review the rest of the information provided to make sure it's correct and then make sure you select "Submit my Booking."

You will receive an email to confirm your booking. If you do not receive this, check your spam folder before contacting the library with any further questions.
