I’m unemployed, and my living situation doesn’t give me much space or peace to get any kind of work done. So I either want to find co-working space to rent, or coffee shops that don’t play music and will allow me to stay for hours. I don’t want to use the public libraries anymore. And I don’t want to insult them by explaining why, let’s just take “public libraries” off the table. Co-working spaces are probably what I’ll go for, but wow they’re expensive. I’m glad to hear some recommendations of co-working spaces that will let me sit and write (code and prose) whenever I want. Bonus points if they have a kettle so I can make tea. Please share your ideas and experiences!

      Seconded - no one is going to bother you at MacOdrum unless you’re being disruptive. If you’re just chilling and quietly reading/writing you’ll be fine.

      There’s some rooms you can only book as a student, but those are pretty obvious.

      Edit: btw, if you want to check out a book for whatever reason, get a SmartLibrary card.

      Edit edit: Some additional information about print services, and as a precursor to that Wifi access, as a guest here. Long story short, visit the ITS desk on the 4th floor if you want wifi access.
