Spaces in the Library

Spaces in the Library
We strive to make all our spaces welcoming and inclusive. Please let us know how we can do better.
Reservable Study Rooms & Tables
Reservable rooms are on the first and second floors, tables are on the second floor, and the fourth floor has one enclosed room that can be used by 1 or 2 people.
Brewed Awakening
A laid-back coffee joint perfect for your study session. Snacks and grab and go items also available so you don't need to leave the library!
Partners in the Library
GEAR UP, SmartyCats Tutoring, Testing Services, the UIT Service Desk, the Writing Center, the Center for Faculty Excellence, and The Research Alliance are all located in the Library and ready to help!
Bobcat Browse Collection
Bobcat Browse is a popular reading collection on the 1st floor of the Library, just past Brewed Awakening. Here you'll discover the latest good books recommended by fellow students, faculty, and staff. Or you can read current issues of your favorite magazines and local newspapers.

Interlibrary Loan (ILL)

The MSU Library provides interlibrary loan (ILL) services for current students, faculty, staff, and affiliates. Unfortunately, we are unable to provide this to alumni, retirees, or the general public.

ILL is an agreement to borrow from and loan to other libraries. You can request books (no current semester textbooks), articles, video or audio recordings, government documents, theses/dissertations, conference proceedings, patents, and newspapers. If we can find a source, we’ll try to get it!

Most article requests take 2-3 business days while most loan requests take 3-7 business days

Interlibrary Loan (ILL)
Log in with your NetID to request materials we don't own through Interlibrary Loan. Free for MSU affiliates.
