STEP 3 - SUBMIT A REQUEST
Arrange a successful event by reading this first before submitting the Request Form (linked below):
- PLAN AHEAD
UM Libraries requires a minimum of at least 2 weeks advance notice to reserve rooms. Last minute requests cannot be supported. - PRIORITY ACCESS and AVAILABILITY
- Priority for use of library instruction labs is given to library staff to conduct instruction activities, meetings, staff training, etc.
- Library rooms and labs are in high demand, so availability is not guaranteed. Note that the first two months of each semester (September, October, February, and March), library labs cannot be reserved other than for library instruction. However, we invite you to request a visit during other times of the year. Consider several possible dates for your event when you fill out the Request Form.
- DESIGNATE a LIAISON
To ensure consistent communication between your group and UM Libraries, please assign one person to act as your event liaison throughout the planning process. - CODE OF CONDUCT
Review the Code of Conduct Policy for Library Users
