Group Study Room Policies
- Only groups of three (3) or more people during the peak periods of 9:00 am-4:00 pm, M-F. UTEP ID required for check-out
- Rooms circulate for three (3) hours and may not be renewed a half hour before closing
- Group members must be present at check-out
- Individuals in rooms, without their group, will be removed
- There is a 50¢ late fee for every hour keys and/or equipment are not returned
- Keys may not leave the building
- First come, first serve -- there are no waiting lists and no reservations
- No holding rooms to step out for a break or lunch
- Study rooms are for study use only!
- Keep noise level down -- the study rooms echo. Have consideration for other students
- No disruptive behavior will be tolerated

Any refusal to comply with any of these policies may result in the Campus Police being asked to intervene and a report may be sent to the Dean of Students for disciplinary action.
The Library enforces all of its circulation policies fairly and equitably. If there is any question or problem, supervisors are available for assistance.
