Luton - study environment

Please remove the extra seating from the library corner students sit there for chat which creates disturbance. Keep silence in the library should be followed.

Thank you for taking the time to write to us. We appreciate the opportunity to clarify what the position is. The Luton LRC has 2 silent floors: levels 2 & 3. Everywhere else is open access and available for students to study in the way they think fit. Group work is a recognised part of the University's curriculum so students "chatting" is a very legitimate practice.
The seating on level 1 isn't "extra" it is supposed to be there.
I am sorry for any frustration you may have experienced. May I suggest that you study on level 2 or 3 in future? Those floors are meant to be Silent.
