The After Hours Study Room will not operate at all in these breaks. Also note that the Library hours are usually reduced as well.
FACILITIES, CONDITIONS and RULES
- Security will frequently patrol in the designated area while the room is operating. At the close of the rooms all students should be asked to leave the building, and the building will be locked.
- The E6A rooms are covered by wireless network and therefore provide computer network access for students who have notebook computers.

- There is an internal "house" phone in the study rooms which occupants can use to dial security (x7112) or other internal numbers.

- No food and drink, apart from water only in sealed containers (plastic bottles), will be allowed in the rooms. Food and other drink must be consumed outside the building and security will ask any student with food or drink to leave.
- Students are not to interfere with any equipment installed in the rooms and will be asked to leave if found doing so. Equipment in the rooms is alarmed and alarms triggered in this area will be investigated by security.
