Thank You to the UCC Alumni Fund for funding Pods 1, 2 and 3.
The study pods were funded through philanthropic support from alumni, friends, and staff of UCC. The UCC Alumni Fund provides grants for urgent and transformational projects like this that directly enhance the student experience. Learn more at alumni.ucc.ie/alumni-fund.
There are 4 bookable study pods on Q+1 near the Digital Scholarship Studio. The pods can be booked for individual study (Pod 1, 2 or 4), group study (Pod 2, 3 or 4), online lectures/classes, online study skills sessions and online interviews. The pods have sound muffling to reduce noise but are not entirely soundproofed, so headphones/earbuds are recommended.
All pods contain power, independent lighting, and ventilation.
Bring your own device to use in the pod or borrow one of our laptops from our Laptop Loans service.
Due to the small size of the study pod and narrow doorway they are not accessible to wheelchair users and may be unsuitable for students using larger mobility aids.
Please book the Group Study Rooms for larger groups.
Maximum booking is 2 hours per person/group per day. Booking window (when you can book a pod) is up to 1 week in advance.
If you notice any issue in the pod, please email library@ucc.ie so that staff can resolve the issue.
NOTE: Library Staff can cancel the booking if there has been a breach of the booking Terms & Conditions (see below).
