    Does anyone know if any study rooms are available on campus at the weekends given the library is closed at weekends all summer.

    Thanks!

    I'm not sure - never heard of anything available, but I hope there is.

    Its a bit of a disgrace that the library is not available for research purposes on a weekend.

    My work might only be undergraduate research but it means I can only do it on the evenings, when the library is only open late 3 nights and weekends, when it is closed: makes getting work done a real pain, especially if you need to use the college computers.

    I asked in the library and they didn't know if anywhere. Not even a lecture hall left open. Its ridiculous!

    As a general rule weekend and evening usage of the college is only undergrads - postgrads answ research staff tend to be 9-5 ish, and have key card access to the building they work in for the exception.

    Might be best to just grab what you need and go to a public library?

    I did weekend/evening study for my post-grad. Haven't found a public library that's actually quiet yet. :(
