Fun fact: There are exactly 691 panels on the glass dome! Of course, you could always count them to double-check. Is this the library of the future?

Great place to study. In the winter during a heavy snow, you feel like you're in an igloo.

Great place to watch a storm. Not a great place to do work when it's storming.

Love the natural light, hate the super loud air conditioner. Plus good luck finding space during finals week

You can cross your legs under the desks! Also the vents are just a white noise machine. Embrace it :)

Try to get an individual table by the windows; it'll change your life.

Don't sneeze. It startles people. Throughout the entire room.

Erudite headquarters. Watch out for Divergents.

Kinda too hot for studying in spring/summer. The warm temperature make you fall asleep and your laptop would overheat (hence slower). Crerar or Harper is still your best bet.

There's a hidden water fountain just to your right as you enter – no need to traverse the bridge every time you get thirsty!
