CoLAB
General Information
The CoLab is a reservable space designed to better enhance collaborative and virtual work. The Library has two “CoLabs”. Each CoLab is located on the second floor of the Library and can be reserved by individuals or small groups up to 2 times per week. The person making the reservation must have a valid Café Library Card.
A Samsung Smart TV Monitor is available in each CoLab. The furniture in each room can be rearranged. We kindly request that you restore the room to its original configuration at the end of your session.
How Does the CoLab Work?
You must make a reservation to use the CoLab. Reservations can be made up to 2 weeks in advance, or in the moment if the room is available. You can make a reservation online or in person by scanning the QR Code next to each CoLab’s door. Further booking restrictions include:
- The CoLab can be reserved up to 2 times per week.
- Please Note: If a patron reserves CoLab A 1 time and CoLab B 1 time, within the same week, this would equal your 2 reservations.
- The CoLab can be reserved up to 3 hours.
- Participants must adhere to all Library rules, regulations and policies and every rule of the CoLab.
Each CoLab has a maximum capacity of 7. The individual reserving the space is responsible for ensuring attendance does not exceed the capacity limit or prohibit accessibility. Be sure to check the list of equipment and furniture that each CoLab offers, as each room may be best suited for different sized groups and purposes.

Reserving the CoLab
The Library uses an online reservation system. Once a reservation is made, the patron who made the reservation will receive a list of ‘Check In’ instructions. These instructions will be sent to the email address that the patron enters when filling out the reservation form.
Please make sure to save this email. It will include a 3 Digit Code that you will enter into a link at the start of your session to ‘Check In’. You will also have the option of scanning a QR Code next to your reserved CoLab’s door, which will bring you to the same ‘Check In’ page.
Be sure to arrive 5 minutes before your reservation begins. If you do not ‘Check In’ within 15 minutes after the start of your reservation, your reservation will automatically be cancelled.
