Study
areas
TUS libraries offer various types of study spaces for different study needs. You can choose to work quietly on your own at a study desk, individually at a PC or work with a group of students in one of our study rooms in Moylish Library.
Training room Moylish with PCs: students may use this room as a study space when library classes are not taking place. There is a timetable posted on the doors so students will know when the room needs to be kept free.
The computer room near the library entrance in Moylish can be used as a study space too.
