Study space and safety

  • Due to the need for social distancing, there are only 482 study spaces in the Templeman Library. You may have to queue to get in at busy times: see how busy the library is right now.
  • You can book a free carrel (individual study room).
  • The library is set up for socially distanced individual study only – there are no group study rooms or spaces.

To help keep everyone in the library safe, you need to follow these safety rules:

  • Don’t move tables or chairs – they are positioned for your safety
  • Wear a face-covering at all times within the library, unless you are exempt.
  • Clean your desk, keyboard and mouse and printer touchpad before use with the wipes provided (but please don’t use the wipes on PC screens).
