USMA Library Guides: How Do I?: Collaborative Rooms

Collaborative Rooms

Collaborative rooms are available on a first come, first serve basis for cadets. Gather a group of 3 cadets to come checkout a room.

Exceptions: If you need to practice a presentation, or practice a language out loud, tell the staff member at the Front Desk, and you can check out a room for that purpose.
Please the leave the rooms in the same or better condition that you found them in so they will be ready for the next group to use.
