How do I reserve a study room?
Answer
The library has two study rooms that can be reserved through a new library system. Note that due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the study rooms only have capacity for two people each. Here are steps to reserve them.
1. Navigate to the library home page directly to https://library.divinemercy.edu. It is recommended that you make a bookmark or favorite so you can access the page in the future.
2. Select the “Reserve a Study Room” button on the bottom of the page, or in the top navigation bar, in the “Services” dropdown menu. If the button is clicked, a window will open where you can select the room and the times that you want. If the link in the dropdown menu is selected, the reserves page will show. Either will allow you to make a reservation.
For the Button on the Library Home Page:
Once clicked, this opens a pop-up window that gives available times in both study rooms. Check the box next to the time(s) of interest. If your preferred time is not there, then the time is not available. Then submit the times.
4. On the following form, enter in your name and your email. You will receive an email to verify it and you will need to do so within 15 minutes.
Clicking the “Reserve a Study Room” link in the Navigation Bar
Under the Services dropdown menu, select the "Reserve a Study Room" link. You will be taken to another page with a grid.
Click the grid where you want your start time to be. It will automatically give you four hours. If you want to change the end time, in the box below, select your alternative end time. If you want to cancel, click the small trash can icon. When you are all done, click the "Submit Times" button. Yellow means your tentative times, green means available, and red means unavailable.
After you submit times, you will be taken to a form to complete your booking. Enter your name and DMU email. You will also have to verify your booking within 15 minutes based on an email you receive. If you do not complete your booking, after 5 minutes, the times you selected will no longer be held for you. Click the blue Change link to change. After you submit your booking here only staff members can change it.
