Step by step instructions for library services

Group Study Rooms

Taft College Library offers five group study rooms for reservation. Reservations can be made up to two weeks in advance at the Circulation Desk or by calling us at 661-763-7707. To check out a study room, you will need to present your Taft College Student ID at the Circulation Desk.

Students are allowed to check out group study rooms for a maximum of two consecutive hours per day. To check out a room, at least two group members must be present, and reservations are restricted to groups of two or more. If a room remains unoccupied for more than 15 minutes, it will be released to accommodate waiting groups.

All group study rooms must be vacated 15 minutes before the Library's closing time. Per Taft College Library Policy, bottled rinks are allowed; however, please refrain from eating in the Library. 

Please be mindful of your speaking volume as the rooms are not soundproof. 

Library staff reserves the right to remove students who violate group study room rules.

Key points to note:

  • A minimum of 2 students per room.
  • Please do not leave personal items unattended in the study rooms.
  • Unoccupied rooms for over 15 minutes will be cleared for waiting groups.
  • A group is limited to using a room once per day.
  • Your reservation will be held for 15 minutes.
  • All rooms must be vacated 15 minutes before the library closes.
