I can't believe how sexist this library is. They have women toilets at the bottom floor, but don't have men toilet.
I spent far too much time here. And while I have enjoyed every second there are few pet peeves I have. First, the library is gorgeous, modern and generally great. Learning spaces are awesome as well. Sadly the shop is far too overpriced with a lacking selection of foods. It also closes randomly for up to 2 hours without prior notice. The second reason is the treatment of the computers inside. I took liking to the iMacs by Apple on the first floor only to find out they were not updated for 2 years now! The IT department refuses to update the OS and the software on it meaning the computers still run old version of the Adobe suite or Microsoft Office. The 5K screens are sprayed by the cleaning staff and often not cleaned properly and so they look like someone kept touching them with greasy fingers. Yuck!
Loved the time I spent here.
Definitely one of the best libraries in the northeast. It's open 24-7 for students (8-midnight in summer) and has really friendly and approachable staff. You can enter as a non-student with ID between certain times too. Great selection of books and journals and a mix of silent and social areas depending on your needs. Thoroughly recommend!
Great library, recently renovated so quite smart and comfortable. Only downfall is that I am not yet used to the alternate gender toilets being on every other floor. So male toilets only available on 6th floor, ladies toilets only available on 5th floor, male toilets 4th floor, ladies toilets on 3rd floor etc.
