Bookable Medical Library spaces

We have a variety of spaces that are bookable:

• 4 x single-person pods
• 4 seater pod
• 14-seater training room (with lectern and projector)
• 12-seater meeting room

To book these spaces:

• Speak to a member of library staff.
• Speak to the custodial team at the building reception.
• Email library@medschl.cam.ac.uk or room-booking@medschl.cam.ac.uk. Please include booking title, date, start and end time, number of people attending, and contact details.

If a bookable space is empty, you can use it, but a person with a booking will always have priority.

Computing facilities
