Spaces in the library designed for sensory-seeking and sensory-avoidance.


Sensory Seeking Space

A high sensory space is in the northwest corner of the library first floor. This vibrant, inclusive zone fuels relaxation and ideation with fidget toys, Legos, coloring, and floor seating. Let the sensory wall inspire and invigorate your imagination. On-demand and reservation-free, this space is ideal for individuals or small student groups seeking an unconventional, creativity-boosting spot to de-stress, brainstorm, or bond.

Sensory Avoidant Spaces

Distraction-free study spaces include:

  • Third and fourth floor individual study carrel desks with side walls that reduce visible distractions. 
  • Reservable Study Spaces are available for student use, including semi-enclosed rooms for limited-distraction on the first floor and second floors. One enclosed study room is available on the 4th floor.
