Exam Study Zones at Robertson Library

As you're studying for exams or completing final projects, Robertson Library has a workspace for you. We will be adjusting our study zones from December 6th through December 19th.

The entire upper floor, with two exceptions, will become a silent zone. Those who want silent study spaces can continue to use the sunroom, the upstairs study carrels, and the one-person study rooms (320-327 and 331-336). We ask that people using or travelling through the Stacks and the upstairs lobby observe silence during exams.

Those who are working on group projects or who prefer some background noise can use the upstairs reading room or any of the spaces on the main floor of the library. The group study rooms can be reserved by groups of 2-8 people. Since the group study rooms are not soundproof, those in the upstairs group study rooms are asked to be mindful of the silent zones nearby.
 

On Tuesday, December 3, 2024, come to the Robertson Library for a coffee/tea break! At 10:00 am, stop by the lobby with your reusable cup for a free coffee or tea and a little treat!

This year, Giving Tuesday at UPEI (December 3) is all about showing our love for the Robertson Library! The Robertson Library has been at the heart of our campus for nearly 50 years, supporting student success. On Giving Tuesday, your support will help us elevate the Robertson Library to new heights, empowering every student to reach their full potential! UPEI’s growth demands a world-class library, and to bring this idea to life, we have embarked on a fundraising campaign with the goal of raising $15 million to support the revitalization of the library and continue to serve generations of students to come.

Every donation designated for the "Robertson Library Revitalization Campaign" made on or before Giving Tuesday will be MATCHED by an extremely generous anonymous donor--up to a total of $20,000!  

Get ready to make your mark on Giving Tuesday and be part of something truly extraordinary! Let's come together, donate, and support the Robertson Library Revitalization Campaign!  

Donate on Giving Tuesday! Together we can create a vibrant future for the Robertson Library!

Giving Tuesday is a global movement for giving and volunteering that takes place each year after Black Friday. As the “opening day of the giving season,” it is a time when charities, companies, and individuals join together and rally for favourite causes.
