It is now mandatory to book a Library study space in advance in order to comply with University and Government guidelines for safe use of the space due to Covid19 restrictions. 
 
The Library Study Space is bookable online via Resource Booker, the University room booking system. 
There are 25 study spaces available in the Library 
18 PCs 
6 Macs 
BYOD desks 
The study tables are clearly marked with a table number. 
They are individual study spaces and physically distanced. 
 
To book a study space, go to the myHWU app which will give you access to the Student Portal .   
Select the Book A Room tile  
Then select the Scottish Borders Campus Library Study Space tile.  

The rooms are listed as one long list so scroll down to see them all.

Click on the name of the space that you would like to book e.g. SBC Library Mac 1.
