Swem Library implements new room booking process

Published on

You spoke and we listened! We have heard from many students about how cumbersome the EMS system is for booking group study rooms and media studios at Swem Library. You told us you wanted a system that was more user-friendly. Now you have it!

Over the past several months, Swem has been working to implement LibCal, a product that makes reserving library rooms and spaces easy. Swem Library has over 50 rooms and spaces, so streamlining this process – and making it easier for you – is important to us!

Starting Friday, March 27, you will be able to reserve group study rooms, media studios, media collaboration booths and media workstations via LibCal. We will no longer be using EMS as of that date.

It’s easy to make a reservation! Visit https://libcal.swem.wm.edu/. Under “Reserve a Room” select the room you would like to book. Click one or more of the open green slots, follow the prompts and fill out the form. You will receive an email when your reservation is confirmed. Another great feature: You do not have to login to see room availability. 

Try it out and tell us what you think! We want your feedback.
