Book a group study room

You can book a group study room via TimeEdit if you want to study together with others in a quiet setting.

To make a booking, you need to be registered in Ladok as an active student. Remember to check in no later than 15 minutes after the start time – otherwise, the room will be released for other students to book.

Book a resource room

If you need additional support in your studies, you can book a resource room via TimeEdit. The rooms can be booked for individual study time, but not for exams or assessments.

The rooms are equipped with a computer, speech synthesis and spell-checking software. To access the room, you need a valid access card – contact your coordinator if you do not have one.

  • In Albano, there are five resource rooms in house 2, floor 2.
  • In Frescati, there are four resource rooms in Universitetsbiblioteket.

Opening hours

During lunchtime (11:00–14:00), seats in restaurants are reserved for dining guests. At other times, they may be used for studying when the premises are open.
