Build bibliographies and Manage Citations

Need a Study Room?

Study Rooms are designed to provide spaces for individuals or groups to work on collaborative projects and course-related work during Library hours.

The rooms are available on a first-come, first-served basis or can be reserved at the Daley Library, LHS-Chicago, LHS-Peoria and LHS-Urbana. For some rooms, groups may take precedence over individuals.

Graduate students at the Daley Library are eligible to apply for a research carrel.
