Policies & Procedures
Study Room Policies
Reservations:
- Study rooms are available by reservation only. Users without a reservation may be asked to vacate.
- Reservations can be made up to 15 days in advance for a duration of 30 minutes to 2 hours per day.
-
Reservations must be made and checked in by the person using the room; we do not accept booking requests on behalf of others.
- The person whose name is on the booking reservation must be present during the reserved times. This ensures accountability and proper use of the study rooms.
- A reservation will be held for 15 minutes. If the reserving group has not checked in by then, the reservation will be canceled and the room will be made available to others.
- An initial reservation can be extended if no other reservations are made for the room after the initial period. Please check at the Front Desk to request an extension.
- To ensure fair access, study room reservations are limited to one per group per day. Multiple or continuous reservations by different members of the same group are not permitted.
Room Usage:
- The study rooms are intended for academic purposes, coursework, or official University clubs and committees.
- Priority is given to groups of two or more HPU students.
- Eating is not allowed to maintain cleanliness and prevent property damage. Beverages are permitted in spill-proof containers; bottled water is allowed except around copiers and computers. Please clean up after yourself or your group before leaving.
- Return all furniture to its original location before vacating the room.
- For safety and security purposes, the door must remain unblocked while in use, as blocking entrances, exits, or passageways creates a safety hazard.
Responsibilities:
- The person making the reservation will be responsible for any physical damage to the room or its contents.
- The Library and Learning Commons is not responsible for the loss of personal property.
Conduct:
- All users of the study rooms are subject to the University Libraries Conduct Policy and the HPU Code of Student Conduct, which can be found in the HPU Student Handbook.
- Library staff reserve the right to cancel a reservation at any time.
Note: These policies and procedures are subject to change without prior notification.
