(Oct 11/12) Thank you for adding new study space on the second floor of Thode! Unfortunately it seems people dont know its a quiet study space and many conversations and group meetings are taking place. Is there something the library can do to raise awareness its a quiet study space? Its easy to ask one person to stop talking but when the whole floor is abuzz there isnt much an individual can do. Perhaps a large sign right at the top of the stairs? Or perhaps a regular patrol by library personnel would help spread the word. Thanks!
Library response: Glad to hear you like the new space on the 2nd floor of Thode. We are working on better signage and will try to patrol the area as often as we can. The problem is that this floor is suspended above an atrium where the noise carries up. We are also looking into other sound baffling solutions. We appreciate your patience while we work on improving the use of this space. (Oct 25/12)
