A
With exams just around the corner, now is a good time to explore some of UCL’s lesser-known study spaces and get down to some revision. Here are some good choices for you.
UCL Senate House Hub
UCL Senate House Hub opened in 2015 and provides 144 study spaces. What’s more, you can check how many spaces are available online before you head to the place. Located on the 3rd floor of the South Block of Senate House, the center has room for individual and group study in traditional library spaces, as well as armchairs and wi-fi coverage.
UCL Eastman Dental Library
The newly redecorated UCL Eastman Dental Library is located halfway along Gray's Inn Road and is open from Monday to Friday, 9:00am 800pm. The library has 72 study spaces, and many IT facilities(equipment with access to the Internet). The library also has a study room for meetings and a computer cluster room with a whiteboard.
UCL Language & Speech Science Library
UCL Language & Speech Science Library(LASS)has disabled access and has recently been decorated to add extra study spaces. With only 49 spaces, LASS is smaller than most other UCL libraries and tends to fill up quickly, so get there early to avoid disappointment.
Senate House Library
This one may be cheating as the Senate House Library is not technically a UCL library. However, all UCL students and staff can register for free membership online. With millions of books and journals, Senate House Library offers some places a little less used by UCL students but perfect for students who want to focus on some hard work.
