The University of Arkansas community can now reserve study rooms in Mullins Library using the online service Dibs! Reserve a Room.

An updated web page breaks down all the information, including which rooms are available and who can reserve them. From there, users will link to the Dibs! service through the UARK Central Login to make the reservation. Instructions are available at our FAQ page, but the system is very user friendly. Just make a note of where to pick up the room's key and bring your University of Arkansas ID card.

"Being able to reserve the study spaces in Mullins Library is a service that students have been requesting, and we know these spaces are in high demand," said Kathleen Lehman, User Experience Librarian. "We're hoping the new reservation system will allow students to plan ahead and help them manage their time."

Dibs! is the latest online service aimed at making the University Libraries resources and amenities easier to find and faster to navigate. Other online services include: Interlibrary Loan, RazorRush, Ask a Librarian, and My Library Account. Or, browse LibGuides and the Digital Collections landing page to access resources and information. Up next, a new mobile catalog interface that works on your phones or tablets, too — use it to text links and locations, or request items to pick up.
