Library Facilities

Safety
An alarm will sound in case of fire. Do not assume that the signal is a test if it goes off. Everyone must exit the building quickly and in an orderly manner. Emergency exits are located upstairs on the north and south ends of the building. Exiting through these doors will cause an alarm to sound.Please become familiar with the locations of exits and fire extinguisher.

Be careful when using the staircases. Avoid running on the stairs, and please, never slide down the banister: besides the danger of falling off, there is the danger of breaking one of the glass panels.

Use care near the railing around the second-floor atrium, and do not throw or drop any objects from the second floor into the atrium.

Please don't leave your property unattended--thefts have occurred in the library.

Student Carrels
Carrels within the library are available to second- and third-year law students. First-year students are assigned carrels in the Gibson Reading Room in the law building. Second year law students are randomly assigned library carrels prior to the fall semester for use until graduation. The library maintains a carrel directory at the circulation desk and at the Executive Secretary's office. Carrels must be cleaned out by the first Monday in August and personal items remaining will be sent to central lost and found (Building 430 #128). All library carrels have lamps and electrical outlets. Clamp lights and extension cords may be borrowed from the circulation desk. Students may rent lock boxes for use in their carrels to secure their personal items for $30.00 for 3 years.Tables are provided for other library users and for students who do not have carrels within the library. The tables at the north and south ends of the first floor past the staircases have been reserved for publications copy-work staff members and should be vacated upon their request.

Copying
Copiers are located in the copy center in the middle of the main floor. A reader-printer for copying microforms is available in the reference room. Public and student computer printing is also available.A debit card for use in library copy machines may be purchased from the copy center. Student and faculty discounts are available.

Staff in the Law Library Copy Center will photocopy material for patrons. The charge for this service is $0.20 per page. Patrons can pull the books, mark pages in books to be photocopied and take them to the copy center in the Law Library, and pick up the copies later. Please keep in mind that the time required to fill a request will depend upon demand and other duties required of the Law Library Copy Center.

Conference Rooms
Small study rooms can be reserved at the circulation desk for groups of two or more law students. A group must delegate one of its members to be responsible for reserving the room and may sign up for no more than two hours at a time.
