    I haven't used this study spot since moving outside the loop around 2004, but the trick used to be to arrive before midnight so that you could stay late.

    Very quiet! Idealist place to study. I appreciate that there are at least two power plugs for each table - super convenient!

    Great place to study! When entering through the front desk, the right side of the library is cool; the left side is much warmer.

    Established in 1949, Fondren Library is where students go to find a good book – or study for exams. The library catalogued its one millionth volume in 1979.

    Check out the vending machines and cool seating on the 4th floor, right by Elevator A.

    3rd floor is nice but the librarian (as of 2013) is hateful.
