General Library & Study Facilities Codes comments: Study space is classified into five categories: study room, stack, open-stack study room processing room, and study service. Graduate study and reading rooms in departments tied to instructional programs are coded as Scholarly Activity (250). Offices used for library activities are classified as office facilities. A study room may contain equipment or materials which aid the study or learning process (e.g., microcomputers, computer terminals, multi-media carrels, typewriters, records, tapes) which do not restrict the room to a particular academic discipline or discipline group. Whereas a Study Room (410) may appear in virtually any type of building on campus (e.g., academic, residential, student service), Stacks (440), Open Stack Study Rooms (430), and Processing Rooms (460) are limited to central and branch libraries.
Description: Includes study or reading rooms, "learning labs," or "computer labs" located in libraries, residential facilities, student service facilities, study carrel and booth areas, and similar rooms which are intended for general study purposes. Study stations may be grouped, as in a library reading room, or individualized, as in a carrel. Study stations may include microcomputers, typewriters, computer terminals or other multi-media equipment. Study rooms are primarily used by students or staff for learning at their own convenience, although access may be restricted by a controlling unit.
Exclusions: Does not include study rooms associated with an instructional program or departmental library (see 251-Department Library). Does not include open labs (270) which are restricted to a particular discipline or discipline group. This category also does not include commons (630 or 252) which are intended for casual interaction.
Description: Seating areas include those types of stations and seating arrangements described under Study Room (410). The stack areas of these rooms may include any of the educational material arrangements described under Stack (440). Includes rooms generally referred to as open stack study rooms or carrels. The room would ordinarily contain multiple rows of doubled-faced shelving units as opposed to single-faced units against the wall or serving as partitions.
Exclusions: Does not include study rooms that are associated with departments in instructional programs or departmental libraries; such rooms are more appropriately coded as Departmental Library (251). Does not include Study Rooms (410) which have no stack areas. Those stack areas which have only a few incidental chairs or other seating, without a formally arranged study seating area, should be coded as Stack (440).
Exclusions: Does not include stacks associated with departmental libraries or study rooms in departments in instructional programs; such areas would be coded as Departmental Library (251). Also does not include general storage areas for such materials which serve a particular room or area; such rooms would take the appropriate service code. Examples of these service rooms include tape storage rooms for language laboratories (275), book storage rooms for classrooms (125), or music for general listening enjoyment (625). Also does not include collections of educational materials, regardless of form or type (e.g., books, tapes, museum collections, soil samples), which are for exhibition use (see 660, 665) as opposed to a study resource. Audio-visual film and tape libraries which generally serve groups rather than individuals are classified as Media Production Service (565). Tape storage for language laboratories is classified as Open Laboratory Service (275).
Definition: A central or branch library room that directly serves study rooms, stacks, open-stack study rooms, or processing rooms as a direct extension of the activities in those rooms.
Description: Includes storage rooms, copy rooms, closets, locker rooms, coat rooms, and other typical service areas which support a primary study facilities room (see 410, 430, 440, 460).
Description: A Processing Room is intended for specific library operations which support the overall library mission. Included are card, microfiche, and on-line catalog areas; reference desk and circulation desk areas; bookbinding rooms; on-line search rooms; multi-media materials processing areas; interlibrary loan processing areas; and other areas with a specific process or operation in support of library functions.
Exclusions: Does not include processing rooms in departmental libraries (255). Areas which serve both as office stations and processing rooms should be coded according to primary use. Small incidental processing areas in larger stack or study areas should be included within the larger primary use room category (410, 430, 440, 460). Does not include typical support rooms which serve study and other primary activity areas, such as storage rooms, copy rooms, closets, and other service-type rooms (455).

SERVICE ALERT: A construction project on the entry level of the Perry-Castañeda Library (PCL) will result in occasional noise that could impact user experience. Consider floors 3, 4, and 6 as alternative quiet study options, and for collaborative study areas, please use floor 5. Earplugs are available at the PCL desk upon request.
The library is the place for all of your study and research needs. Whether you need a big table for group projects, a quiet place to work alone, or just a computer, JCKL has you covered. For research, JCKL provides access to hundreds of thousands of books, millions of scholarly articles, custom-made research starter guides, and expert librarians on call to help you find what you need.
Students can reserve study rooms throughout the library to study alone or in a group. Each room has a computer and a whiteboard, so you can study, do homework or write a research paper. Each study room can be reserved up to two hours a day and booked in advance.
The James E. Shepard Memorial Library is the main library on campus, with the most extended hours of services. This library houses more than 500,000 books and more than 400 research databases and is a technology-rich learning space designed for collaborative engagement and individual study. As a member of the Triangle Research Libraries Network (TRLN), it also provides students and faculty with access to the holdings of the other academic research libraries in the Research Triangle and beyond. The librarians at Shepard Library provide one-on-one consultations and are available upon request to provide library instruction for small groups and larger courses.
A study, also known as a home office, is a room in a house that is used for paperwork, computer work, or reading. Historically, the study of a house was reserved for use as the private office and reading room of a parent/guardian as the formal head of a household, but today studies are generally either used to operate a home business or else open to the whole family.[1]
The study developed from the closet or cabinet of the Renaissance era. From the beginning of the 18th century onwards increased literacy at the middle-class family level led to the setting aside of closed study and library areas within larger houses. Here commercial work, reading, correspondence, fact-recording and other activities could be undertaken in privacy and silence.[2] Until well into the 20th century gender restrictions on social roles made the domestic study an essentially male facility. The 19th century clergyman would prepare sermons and interview parishioners in his study while his equally literate wife would undertake her social obligations in a nearby parlour.[3]
The Internet has led to a transformation of the historic study with its localized functions into the present day home-office. The technological revolution has enabled individuals to engage in remote work while still being productive using the Internet, email, e-commerce, and videotelephony.[citation needed]
Multiple semi-private cubicles here each offer a round table and 4 chairs. Additional chairs may be pulled in, as needed, and put back after use. Whiteboards are available in the surrounding area that can also be used. While no computers are available in the cubicles, wireless capability and power outlets are available. A lockable file cabinet is available nearby, in which participants can store needed office supplies, promotional/instructional materials, and similar items, if desired (contact Gen Thipatima for details). 2ff7e9595c
