The following guidelines apply to all room reservation requests:

  • Student Organizations may request Odum Library Room 1480 or 1470.
  • All Requests must be submitted at least 48 hours in advance.
  • Requests can be submitted up to two weeks before the date being requested.

  • Faculty and Staff may request one of the Odum Library computer classrooms (3270, 2633) in addition to meeting rooms 1470, 1480, and 1604.  All rooms have an instructor station and either a projector or TV screens.
