UNH Library Policies

Current UNH students, faculty, and staff are welcome to reserve rooms in the library for non-commercial, academic and administrative use. Due to high demand for library spaces, registrar-scheduled classes and student groups needing meeting space for non-academic purposes should seek space on campus allocated for the specific use (e.g., student activities in the Memorial Union Building).
