About the space
The Shapiro Reading Room at the south end of the Clark Commons is a space for quiet, focused, individual study. A large window in the center of the room and two on either side let in lots of natural light.
The room’s seating is primarily at long tables that seat up to 8 people at padded chairs. These tables are perpendicular to a windowed wall between the room and the rest of the Clark Commons. Each table has a pair of lamps for customizable lighting.
Along the exterior walls, there’s a selection of smaller tables and padded chairs, as well as armchairs and movable side tables. There are also two large counter-height tables with a lamp and seats for up to 4 people.
