Not only is this a huge library with unlimited resources & a great place to study at any time of the day, but during midterms & finals week they provide FREE drinks & snack after 2:30 am for crammers

Daniele Banci

Spent many late nights and early mornings here! Try the chicken shawarma from the Cafe Biblioteca ! The price is OK...They also have a great variety of herbal teas . Perfect for students I think! :)

Bryant S.

Basement is always a good place to get some quiet study time. There's a cafe there in case you need a quick lunch . Library gets crowded during finals. Open 24hr for students with ID except on weekends

Caitlin Kelley

Great place to study is the second floor in the plush chairs overlooking the lawn. There are outlets for your laptop; just don't go at sunset , the glare is killer.

amanda T

This library makes you get work done if you find the right spot. I prefer the basement where there is computers or personal desks. Try the Cafe down stairs by the front for a great bite to eat!

Join us for a very special event Sat April 7: Club Hayden! Will feature a live DJ & full club lighting; Kegs of craft root beer and lavish food will be available for free. Join us!

Lucas Talmas

Try to be courteous for everyone. If the floor is designated as a quiet floor then don't whisper with friends or listen to music through your headphones, because we can all still hear you!

Edward Hernandez

Great place to get things done, provides access to the Internet and to the plethora of books that sit on the shelves. Also a nice place to kill time and people watch .

Alex Kozlowski

Being Arizona State 's largest library , it gets crowded especially around finals. Check out some of the smaller, less known, library 's on campus encase you need a better place to study

Rainet Lewis

The library is huge & it's a cool place to study. They have library books ,magazines & a sun card machine!The staff in the library are friendly & useful. They have computers & printers too.

ASULibraries

There are now adapters to connect Apple laptops to the MediaScape (large tv monitor at the group study table on the first floor). Just check them out with your SunCard at the Info/Check Out desk.

Rose Rover

If you want to get some studying in dont go to the group study areas & if you want outlets for your computer go to the second or third floor. The bottom level right when you walk in isnt a good spot.

Billy Smith

club hayden? it's definitely a busy place, but a really good place to get homework done is on the third floor. Or if you are more scenic go to the second floor and over look the walk way.

D'Andra Alexander

Hayden Library is only a good place to come to if you're working on a group project or with groups. Whenever I come here by myself it is always people talking loudly and it is usually hard to focus.

Shelby Slaughter

Every aspect of this library is built for success in the Sun Devils. I personally spend a lot of time on the third floor, where they have intense quite areas.

Hillary Elizabeth

Cant focus at home? Come to Hayden to study. Particularly upstairs in between the book cases, here you can find some desks to be alone. Its very quiet too which is a plus.

Emily Zoellner

Nice and quiet place to study. Located right in the center of the Tempe campus . Try an iced chai latte or iced thai tea from Cafe Biblioteca to make studying a little more enjoyable!

Ali Maynard

24-hour library equipped with computers, private study areas , books , and personal cubbies for all ASU students to use. There is also Cafe Biblioteca located in the front of Hayden that offers deliciou

ASULibraries

Need to do a group presentation? Try out one of the media tables on the lower and upper concourse levels. Adapters for Apple computers can be checked out at the Info Desk.

Kaylyn Parsons

If you're looking for a quiet place to study, don't come here. It's usually packed and there hardly any study rooms to do your work and get some peace and quiet . I suggest going to the Noble library .

Melissa Rauch

The first floor is such a great place for study groups to meet up. But if you want silence, the 3rd floor is extremely quiet and there are individual desks sectioned off for optimal concentration.

Ryan Forbes

Not the easiest place to study on campus and has become known as Club Hayden. If you are trying to study take yourself up to the third floor as it gets more quiet as you go to the higher floors.

Evan Reith

Study rooms are a solid way to go. I also like the tables outside the entrance to the library , a good place to chill and hang out without too much people and noise.

vincent kelly

If you need to get some homework done, Hayden is the place to go! great place to pull an all nighter. Always fun to people watch . Computers and printers to use as well .

Tom Oh

If you need a quiet place to study but don't want to be a loner and/or confined to a cubicle, try out the 3rd floor. It's exactly what you're looking for.

Alex Kay

The first floor is great for group studying and collaboration. If you need to concentrate and have some peace and quiet , go to the room right of the elevators on the 3rd floor.

Rishi Khiara

One of the best places to study is in the Luhrs Reading Room on the 4th floor... Quite, comfy chairs , big desks... Ideal for studying!

Brian Dunham

Very helpful staff and if you do not have access to a computer or the Internet, and you're a student, this is the place to be!

Boris Fowler

The cafe in the front is a great place to get work done. The food in the cafe is great! Make sure you bring a quarter for water. They charge! Bad for business.

Nicole Gray

Did you know that Hayden Library was built in 1966 and was named after the founder of Tempe, Charles Trumbull Hayden. Remember you have to go downstairs to enter.

J R

A lot of people end up socializing more than studying here so try to bring headphones or go to the basement…it's quiet there! Avoid during finals-it's packed!

Kathleen Gormley

take the elevator to the third floor, go to the right, and then to the left. the desks along the window/wall are usually open, and have lots of outlets around them. and it's quiet there!

Tom

Looking for a quiet comfy spot to study? Try the southeast corner on the 3rd floor. There is an outlet every table and comfortable chairs .

Berenise Solorio

The private study rooms on the third floor are amazingly quiet , UNLIKE the main floor of the library . Good for tests and quiet homework time.

Brittany Shirk

Make sure to bring your sun card for nights you plan on being there after midnight. They make rounds to make sure your a student.

Buck Jones

If it was not for the little cafe at Hayden library I would have had no desire to study there. They have great coffee , sandwiches , salads , and bottled Coca-cola!

Gery Padilla

If you are looking for a really quiet area to study or work on assignments go to the 3rd floor, most people don't go there so its relatively empty all day, even during busy exam weeks.

Nick Collins

There are airports in developing countries that have more outlets and plugs than this library .

ASU's Tempe Campus

Great place to study! Plus, enjoy Cafe Bibloteca's food and beverages when you need a pick-me-up.

Gery Padilla

If your tired & looking for a place to take a quick nap go to the 2nd floor of Hayden, it's ASU's unofficial student nap area

Gery Padilla

A great meeting place to work on group projects or to go study, but it is usually packed during any exam weeks

bdawk20fan4life

Do not use the basement computers that have an auto-logout feature. There will be a sign near the computer to indicate the time limit. But, students can study comfortably on the cushioned furniture .

Patrick Smith

Take a loa off. Curl up on a big comfy cushion near the main entrance. This is the perfect place for a nice nap.

Michael Iuorio

Great place to study, however it can get really noisy ! Study on the third floor to avoid noise!

Zach Booher

As long as you have your sun card on you, you have 24 hour access to Hayden Libraries resources. They do check for the cards after hours to don't take it lightly!

Gabriel Reggi

Take breaks from studying to enjoy the absolutely beautiful women here. Smart plus beautiful killer combo.

Tim Blake

A wonderfully rich research center, balanced and deep resources

ASULibraries

More outlets activated on Upper Concourse (in the structure in the middle of the room) & Level 3 (in the tables with the blue dividers).

Berenise Solorio

If you need help finding research journals through ERIC, EBSCOhost, etc, they are always ready and willing to help out. Very helpful and welcoming.

Caitlin Rose

If you want to go somewhere quiet , go to the basement , to your left when you see the front desk go right and all the way in the back are a lot of outlets and tables
