Enclosed Study Pods

Study Space — Lecky Library

Highlight on map

Description

 If you prefer minimal visual stimuli, we have developed a number of areas with pods containing enclosed study desks. For example, there are two sets of quiet study pods on the Upper Level of the Lecky Library, which provide enclosure and reduced visual distraction, but also provide generous study space between each desk in an area with good natural light. If you want to work on assignments without any visual distractions, these pods are a great resource. Each pod has a comfortable chair and a desk, and is almost fully enclosed by a privacy screen.

Facilities

Each study pod is equipped with a comfortable padded chair and a desk, providing a generous and ergonomic study space. The layout of the pods ensures sufficient space between each desk, enhancing both privacy and concentration.

The Enclosed Study Pods are designed to create a calm and focused atmosphere, making them suitable for students who are sensitive to visual and auditory stimuli.

The pods are enclosed on three sides by privacy screens, which help to minimise visual distractions and create a sense of personal space. The area benefits from good natural light, providing a soft, even illumination that reduces eye strain. The library environment is generally quiet, with only minimal background noise, allowing you to concentrate fully on your work.

The soft furnishings of the pods also contribute to a quieter ambience, absorbing sound and further reducing noise levels. This combination of factors makes the Enclosed Study Pods a comfortable and supportive environment for focused study sessions.

You can use the internal library complex navigation tool to find this space and see how to get to it from one of the many entrances to the library complex.
