The Valley Library

Excellent - a beautiful space to study in.
At the time of writing this, temporarily open by reservation only, Mon-Sat 10am-5pm, though it changes from time to time as a function of OR State restrictions.

I walked to the Valley Library tonight, just got home. That was awesome, that was really awesome. I found two of the most beautifully dirty, unread gifts that I have ever found in a Public Library. I went l👀king for a bolstering of faith in my God. And i was greatly rewarded. I say "Thank You, Oregon State, for keeping/collecting written word. And allowing us to partake, for free. I can dig that." Thank you Hazel, your willingness and ability to help me, was vital. Just a great Thursday.

Really good library. I had a super stressful situation where I could not return to my dorm but I had to make a ton of phone and zoom calls, and the library staff were awesome. They let me bounce from one available study room to another for the majority of the day and were super kind the entire time. Study rooms vary in quality/size but are all very nice and quiet. I've included a picture of one below.

The valley library is a large building near the middle of Oregon State University's Campus. It is much more than just a library, with study areas, student printing services, quiet place, rooms you can reserve for study/group projects and much more!

Best place to study. Heads down and working environment. People understand the rules and are super co-operative. Staff is fantastic. The books if not available the staff will make sure you are notified when it is. Returning books also super simple. Love the drop box feature they have outside the library. Saves a lot of time.

Best study stop on campus. There are areas to have quite studying but also spots where you can talk and study in groups. The large number of computers is great, I've never had to wait for one. There is also a cafe downstairs, which makes is a plus!

Total lifesaver, especially during the summer. It is kind of hard to study when your house is 80 degrees and up. I actually woke up at 3 to study for my last final today and made the immediate decision to come here since, even at 3 am, my house still hadn't cooled down below 80. I will say that summer hours are different from the rest of the year, so check if you plan on coming early, especially on the weekends.

Rentable study rooms, lots of computers, printers, copiers, library staff that do right by students. Coffee shop access both inside and out. Silent floor offers focused space.

Open late (with the coffee shop as a food option), lots of study space, impressive collection, and very helpful staff. One of the best and most central places on campus.

Beautiful library and facility. Unfortunately the stacks were still off limits, but I am excited to return and see them first hand when they open up again!

They'll patiently help you find exactly what you need, even if you didn't know what that was!

The best place to study, bar none, especially with a pair of noise-canceling headphones checked out from the library! 👍

Great hours and very nice inside. If you want quiet, you can easily find it.

It's always quite and there's room for group or individual studying.

Best place to study or do homework. Might be hard to find an empty table during finals week.

Bit noicy these days

Great for studying and taking naps when it's raining.

Nice place to work, but gets very crowded around finals

Librarians very helpful, amazing inventory of items to check out

it's the library. it's the place to study. always lit out here
