💺  Library Furniture

The NW Library offers a relaxing environment with comfortable furniture for our public areas. 

We surveyed students to identify their library furniture preferences and we studied the ways groups utilized the different spaces of the Northwest Campus Library.

We used this data to create areas with:

  • modular, movable furniture
  • comfortable seating
  • collaborative spaces
  • more technology
  • more power outlets
  • quiet study spaces
  • more study nooks

🔌 Technology, Study Rooms & Study Pods

Incorporating technology into our four study rooms and study pods have contributed to increased usage by students.

  • The Blue study room has a SmartBoard, a white board, and power outlets.
  • The Lilac study room has TV monitor, white board, and power outlets.
  • The Peach study room has a SmartBoard, white board, and power outlets.
  • The Pearl study room has a TV monitor, white board, and power outlets.
  • The Lime Pod has a white board, adjustable lighting, and power outlets. 
  • The Orange Pod has a white board, adjustable lighting, and power outlets.

We also offer iPads, laptops, graphing calculators, virtual reality cube, a Flip Video camera, charging cords for Apples and Androids, lab goggles, lab aprons, and a digital camera for students to check out (all on a first come, first serve basis).
