our class went on a tour to the Sawyer library. We were introduced to several services at the library such as the circulation and reserve desk and the reference desk, which are very essential for a library to have. The three-floor Sawyer library has numerous study group rooms and the students are provided with computers and printers.The study group rooms can be reserved online 24 hours before the next day . Also, the rooms are limited so if your reservation time is over you need to leave the room immediately or you will be charge late fees for the lateness .

Circulation and reserve desk provides students the opportunity to borrow text books for 20 minutes at a time. Reference books can be borrowed and taken out of the library for a period of time. This desk is a huge source for students to get their questions answered regarding their study and search. Our tour guide from the reference desk demonstrated all the possible ways to search using the computers in the library. By entering a title or keyword of a book, report, or journals, we are able to find an enormous amount of information from the list of sources the university supplied. For instance, Library catalog option allows students to view all of Suffolk University library on the screen. Databases by subject is a gate to find any subjects or articles , which the library provides associated with EBSCO Host.
