Main Library Lockers & Carrels

Lockers:

Application forms may be picked up at 8:00 a.m. on the first day of classes every semester (including the summer session) on a first-come first-serve basis.

Lockers are available to currently registered students.

Carrels:

Application forms may be picked up at 8:00 a.m. on the first day of classes every semester (including the summer session). Applications are not distributed prior to these times.

To receive an application form, students must go to the fourth floor of the Main Library to the Bookstacks Office. This office is located in the center hallway next to the north elevator.

After a student has picked up an application form, he/she must:
     a. Completely fill out the front of the form.
     b. Have his/her advisor sign the appropriate place on the back of the form. 
     c. Return the form to the Bookstacks Office. The due date for the form will be posted in the Bookstacks Office. It is typically two days later.

There are a limited number of carrels available, so not every graduate student will be able to have one. Carrels are first assigned to students in the top priority group listed on the back of the application form (group #1), then to those in the second priority group, etc.  Within each group, carrels are assigned in the order in which the applications are picked up from the Bookstacks Office.

Students who are assigned carrels will be notified by postcard within a week.

Students in the health sciences areas, the College of Law, and Library and Information Science are not eligible for carrels in the Main Library. Students in the health sciences and the College of Law should apply to either the Hardin library for the Health Sciences or the College of Law Library for assigned study space.

Please direct specific questions to the Bookstacks supervisor.
