      Show/Hide Desks

      The library provides ample amounts of comfortable study space. However, should you require a personal desk where you can leave research materials for the semester, ask at the Circulation Desk about how you can reserve a desk for your semester or year-long research project.

      The One Button Studio is an easy-to-use video recording studio, on Level 2 of the library, room 204, near the south stairwell. Check out the key at the Circulation desk on the first floor. Reserve the space using the CONSORT Catalog and searching for the title “One button studio,” then clicking “Book this Material” and entering your name and D number (including the D).

      Reservations for the Library Viewing Room must be made in advance by contacting circdesk@denison.edu

      MTS has modified the room so that it is a self-service room for the above-listed types of viewing. Any equipment problems in the Viewing Room will be addressed by MTS staff.

      Show/Hide Lockers

      A limited number of lockers are available for assignment to any Denison student for one semester on a first-come, first-served basis. Lockers are assigned any time when the library is open. See the Circulation Supervisor on duty.

      MTS equipment, such as digital cameras, video cameras, and more, can be checked out at the Circulation Desk. Assistance with MTS equipment is available in the Learning Commons on the main floor of the library. For help with the equipment that you have checked out from the library, please contact the ITS Service Desk.
