View Room Availability

The Todd Multipurpose Room (MPR) is available to interested groups who need this space for library instruction, meetings, conferences, special class sessions or sponsored social gatherings. If the room is not reserved, students may use the room for individual or group study. The MPR seats up to 40 people comfortably, depending on the setup. Bookings may be restricted during the academic year to accommodate academic priorities.

Room reservations must be made with the library office manager at 485.2070. If the office manager is away, you will be directed to a member of the library staff for assistance. Exceptions to the policy must go through the library office manager when the reservations are made.
