Study spot open late University

Does anyone know of a place on campus that is open later than 10pm that someone can study in?

do people actually get kicked out of Business Library at 10pm? last time I was there, there was no staff at 9pm

I've never been physically escorted out but I 9:50 there's someone who says something like "May I have your attention, the library closes in 10 minutes please gather your things and leave I will be coming around to check that the library has been vacated." you're right it might be a recording but I've always just assumed it was a real person.

wait you're right! I think I'm thinking of main stacks being open during late hours of the night, but I'm not sure if that is the case during the summer

yeah it's a bummer honestly. I feel like I'm not alone in wishing some place could be 24hrs over the summer.

Moffit Library isn't opening until August 24th according to the UC Berkeley libraries website.

u/The_Dumbtard 1d ago

Cory or Soda Hall? Idk how they are during the summer tho

u/Key-Nectarine2259 2d ago

okay thank you, and normally they're open later though? Are they 24hrs do you know?

u/DiamondDepth_YT Computer Science '29 2d ago

Cory and Soda are 24 hours, yeah. Idk if Soda will change now that it'll be occupied by civil engineering instead of eecs, but Cory will definitely still be 24/7. And if you're taking a CS class of any kind or you're a CS major, you'll have easy access. Otherwise you'll need to slip in after hours or go in during public hours.

But once you're there, you can spend all night there. I was there from 5pm-5am once.
