Study and Meeting Spaces
The UW-Green Bay Libraries provide a variety of spaces for individual and collaborative research, study, and work.
With over 100,000 visits per year, the Cofrin Library continues to be the heart of campus where students, faculty, and staff meet to research, study, and collaborate. Since 2011, 12:00 - 1:00PM has been our busiest time. We had an average of 82 visits this hour on weekdays during the 2018-19 school year.
For fall of 2018, we added study room reservation software. Students can select the time they want a room online and have the key waiting for them when they arrive at the library. This gives students the assurance of an individual or group meeting space with a computer in the library when they need it. We reserved rooms 2,685 times in the 18-19 academic year.
The tabloid printer from the General Access Computer lab found a new home in the library, providing access for students working on design projects over the weekend.
New Spaces
Beinlich Group Study Room
A generous donation from Jeff and Diane Beinlich allowed us to update a study room on the 6th floor. A new ceiling, lighting, and configurable furniture make this a popular study room for individuals and small groups.
