The group study rooms located on the first floor of the Queens
Library (St. Augustine Hall) are available to current St. John’s
University students for group study and collaborative work
on class projects. They are not intended for use as
individual study carrels or as general-purpose classrooms
and are not available for meetings of student clubs and
societies or social gatherings. The group study rooms are not for
use by students of other colleges/universities. Due to the
popularity of these rooms, the library has established reservation
policies for their use (see below).
There are four group study rooms in the Queens
Library: Rooms A, B, C, and D are located on the first floor, north
wing.
