Enjoy your time in the Group Study Room！
Library group study rooms are currently very popular reserved study areas. With different room setups, they can meet the various needs of different groups of patrons.
N510 (Capacity:6) with MaxHub
N511 (capacity: 4) with Sony Screen
N513 (Capacity:3) with MaxHub
W512 (Capacity:2) with Whiteboard
Check how to make a reservation of your dream room.
Wait… I have a question! After I made the reservation, how can I check into the group study room?
2. Within the first 15 minutes of your reservation time slot, you can confirm your reservation by clicking “CHECK IN” on the screen and tapping the cards you registered for booking the room. (Refer to the below images for two tapping positions.)
If check-in is not completed within 15 minutes, the room will be released back to the reservation system.
3. After the room check-in is successfully confirmed, the monitor interface will turn purplish red and your study group can enjoy your time in this room now! Hooray!
4. We kindly ask that more than half of the room’s maximum capacity check-in. So gather your study buddies and make sure to get everyone on board for a successful reservation.
Happy studying!
