Quiet and private study areas can be reserved by patrons who have an OU 4x4.
The west Circulation Desk has noise canceling headphones to lend to patrons who have an OU 4x4.
If you feel someone is being too loud for the area and you don't feel comfortable asking them to be quieter, please let us know either circulation or security know at the west entrance. We are happy to ask the patron to be quieter or move to another study area.
