Gumberg for Alumni, Retirees, & Guest Borrowers

Services and Spaces

Spaces at Gumberg Library

Gumberg Library open study spaces may be available to alumni, retirees, and guests who have obtained prior permission to conduct research in the building

Please keep in mind that the needs of our current students take priority in our spaces. Due to the high demand with our current students, individual and group rooms are not open for reservations by alumni, retirees, or guests.

Contact us at ask@duq.libanswers.com with your name, status, and your desired dates and times for building use. We will reply with a confirmation that space can be made available depending on the time of year, building usage by students, and planned events at the library. 

If you're a nursing mother and visiting campus, we encourage you to make use of our New Mother's Room. If you do make a reservation (link below) please be sure to follow up with us at ask@duq.libanswers.com so that we can ensure you have access to the building.
