De Havilland LRC Summer Works
From mid- May to the end of August, essential works will be taking place on the ground floor of the de Havilland LRC. There will be minimal impact on your studies, although a small number of study spaces near the media preparation area will be unavailable. Any affected PCs and Macs have been moved so you can still access them. During this time, the Herts Academic Skills (HAS) office will be temporarily located in L280 and L280A. Thank you for your patience while this work is carried out.
Both LRCs are open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, for group and individual study activities. Whether you are looking for a space to participate in a live teaching session, watch a pre-recorded class, or learn online, there is a space for you.
- Group study spaces
- Individual study spaces
- Quiet and silent study spaces
- Multi-faith prayer space in the College Lane Learning Resources Centre (LRC)
Group study spaces
The LRCs have a range of group study spaces including study booths that are available on a first-come, first-served basis.
If you are looking for a space for some focused group work, you can book one of the LRC study rooms using Resource Booker - the new user-friendly booking portal - at booking.herts.ac.uk. Many of the study rooms are kitted out with new PCs with integrated webcams and mics for participating in live teaching sessions, watching a pre-recorded class or learning online.

Individual study spaces
Individual study spaces, both with and without a PC, are available throughout the LRC. No need to book, just come in and find the study space that works best for you.

Quiet and silent study spaces are available at both LRCs for those looking for a spot to concentrate and focus.
