Places to Study

A college library and Learning Commons can be busy, yet it is still one of the best places to study and get assignments done. If you find the main area of the Learning Commons too noisy and it distracts you from your work, ask a staff member to help you find a quieter place to study.

There are often private study rooms available for student use. Please ask at the front circulation desk about availability.

Technology

Computer access is available in all of Jefferson’s Learning Commons. Access does require a KCTCS user name and password. You can reset your password online if you need to do so.
