Faculty Studies Information and Regulations

Eligibility

Faculty Studies are available to University of Oregon faculty, including emeriti, adjunct, courtesy and visiting scholars, who are engaged in specific research projects that require extensive use of print library materials. These rooms are not intended as office or conference space or group study rooms.

Application Process

Application forms are available in Library Administration, Rm. 115 Knight Library. Studies are assigned for the length of time the faculty requests the room, but no longer than one year (four terms). Depending on demand, two or three faculty may be assigned to each room.
