Library Spaces
Spaces to Study, Collaborate, Create and Chill
Study Spaces
Egan Library on the Juneau Campus offers a variety of seating options and flexible spaces to accommodate quiet study, computing and collaboration. Large windows and skylights fill the library with abundant natural light and forest, lake and mountain views. The Learning, Testing and Writing Centers are located on the lower level of the library.
Study Rooms
There are seven study rooms and two conference rooms throughout the Egan library. Study rooms are great for solo study, attending a live online class or collaborative group work that might be too loud for other spaces. Study rooms can be reserved up to three hours a day, up to one week in advance by UA students, staff and faculty. Please make a reservation before using a study room. Priority will be given to users with a reservation. Community groups (non-UA affiliates) interested in reserving conference rooms should contact the circulation desk: 907-796-6300 or uas.libcirc@alaska.edu.
Create Space
A rotating selection of pop-up Creation Stations are featured near the main level entrance. Creation Stations offer an oppportunity to pause, reflect and create.
Studio A
A small recording studio featuring three studio microphones, a mixer and a MacBook Pro running Audacity is available for use by UAS affiliates and in support of UAS courses and clubs. First time users require an orientation and then may access the studio on a drop-in basis for up to three hours at a time during library open hours. Contact the Circulation Desk or Jonas Lamb to schedule an orientation.
Event Space
As a research and academic support facility, we strive to maintain quiet study areas for students so prefer to schedule events to occur after library hours. We are currently reviewing our Events hosting policies (April-May, 2025).
Any questions may be directed to Dean Elise Tomlinson (907) 796-6467.
Classrooms
Please visit the UAS Room Scheduling page for information about use of Egan Library 104 (Media Screening Room) or any of the Egan Wing classrooms (including the Egan Lecture Hall and Glacier View Room).
