Has anyone studied there? Is it quiet/noisy, good/bad for studying? Whats the atmosphere? Small rooms to study in? Are you allowed to talk, if you go in a study group (3 people)? Is it often full or is there always space? Any opinions?

There are rooms to study in. It's a multi level library. The bottom floor where you collect your reserved books has a lot of space from memory. It's just been renovated so it's all pretty new. I've been there a few times and there's always space. And yeah, you can talk quietly, but you obviously have to be respectful. I think that if you get a free library card you get something like 6 hours of web browsing per day at the library? Could be wrong about the time and stuff, but yeah using the computers is free with a library card I'm fairly sure.

There's quite alot of people there but it's still very quite. There are rooms (but only four) so if you're going as a group of 3 you have to be early.
I think it's better to study there alone than to study there with a group (i tried with a group and we couldn't get a room, so it was really difficult to speak as not many people talk there)

It's really nice. It's modern and spacious. But most importantly it has great resources. My Society & Culture teacher took my class there as they have past PIP's and I am definately planning to go back there to do further research. Speaking of PIP's for my Society & Culture major work I'm doing Ethnic Identity and Prejudice in Adolescents as my topic so if any of you guys could fill out my survey it would be much appreciated Cheers
