Library Media Screening Room, Coe Library 123
The purpose of the Library Media Screening Room is for the viewing of film, television, games, and other multimedia content. Students, faculty, and staff can utilize the space to view films or television for class or personal use, our system is compatible with multiple gaming consoles, and other multimedia content.
123 is not compatible with presentations as the podium is at the back of the classroom. If you are looking for a presentation space, Coe 216/218 or other campus classrooms would be a better fit. The space is not a university classroom and is not available for recurring, semester length classes.
