Writing Spaces

Alden Learning Lab 251 is reserved every Saturday from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. during Fall 2025 for quiet, individual writing. The room remains locked, but writers may request access at the library front desk. 

This space gives students a reliable, distraction free writing environment outside of scheduled DWSP sessions.
