The Library provides comfortable reading areas, dedicated computing spaces and small and large group study rooms to create a productive atmosphere for research.
In addition to housing the Library’s print collection, the main level of the Library provides several different areas to meet academic needs.
Numerous Mac and PC machines with a wide array of hardware and software are available for use. Computers are available on a first-come-first-serve basis. Numerous printer/scanner/copier machines are also located throughout both floors of the Library.
The Library has several small and large group meeting rooms that are available for reservation through the EMS Space Reservation System. Please note that the booking of all Library spaces is limited to NYUAD staff and faculty. More information on booking spaces across campus can be found in the student portal and faculty/staff intranet.

Multiple soft-seating areas where students relax and take a break from academics.
Looking for a quiet space to study? The dedicated Reading Room upstairs on the Mezzanine level provides plenty of space for students to focus on their research in a relaxed and quiet environment. The Library’s print periodicals collection is also found here.
The Library has several Group Study Rooms available on a first-come, first-serve basis for student use only. These range in size from two- to ten-person rooms, some with AV systems to support group presentations.
Rolling lockers, located on the Mezzanine Level, are available for senior students to check out. Senior study rolling lockers provide you a personal space so ongoing work may be left in the Library.
