The High Library


Although one must climb flights of formidable-looking steps to enter the library, it is actually a comfortable place. The first floor houses a computer lab and other computers for research and printing. It also offers reference materials, periodicals, and a copier. The lower level (yes, more steps!) includes journal articles and videos. The best feature of the second floor is study rooms where groups can meet to quiz each other or finalize a project without disturbing others. The children's books are placed in between two sets of group study rooms, and these add to lesson plans or act as lighter reading during stressful times. If one is feeling especially adventurous, the highest level is lined with even more books and desks for studying. During finals week, it is difficult to find an open area on any floor because it is one of the best places to concentrate and finish work!
