Assigned Carrels and Study Rooms in the Suzzallo and Allen Libraries
Suzzallo Library Carrels:
These carrels are in the Suzzallo Library in a publicly-accessible space. Carrel assignments are available to University of Washington students, staff, faculty, and visiting scholars. Non-affiliated users are not eligible. Non-affiliated users include alumni, off-campus borrowers, and anyone else not currently attending the University of Washington or employed at the University of Washington.
Carrels are assigned on a quarterly basis and may be renewed at the end of each quarter until the carrel is no longer needed. Patrons registered for spring quarter may retain their carrel through summer quarter, but must renew for autumn quarter or return the carrel card by the end of summer quarter.
Graduate Study Rooms:
These rooms have assigned shelves and shared carrels in the Allen Library. Graduate study room assignments are available only to students with a Ph.D. Candidate’s Certificate. They must be registered for the current quarter to qualify for a space and must be registered to renew.
Initial assignment is for four quarters (counting quarter of issue) with renewals possible each year for four more years. The assignment is not renewable after five years of occupancy.
Faculty Study Rooms:
These study rooms are individually assigned rooms in the Suzzallo Library. Faculty study room assignments are available to current University of Washington faculty and visiting faculty.
Study rooms are assigned annually to UW faculty and quarterly to visiting faculty. Faculty who plan to be on leave for one quarter or more and will not be using their study room may not keep the space during this time; however, reassignment will be made on a priority basis upon their return if their research need continues. Occupants are contacted by the Library Cashier prior to their expiration date to renew or terminate their study room assignment.
Contact the Library Cashier for more information about carrels and room assignments.
