The GRC is a dedicated study and event space for graduate students located between the Library and School of International Service. It can be accessed in two ways:

• SIS Building: Terrace (when SIS Building is open) or garage P1 level
• Bender Library: Lower Level (when Library is open)

Workroom/technology reservations

Reservations are available to AU graduate students between 8am-midnight when the GRC is staffed. At all other times, the workrooms run on a first-come, first-served basis. Each workroom includes a TV, with the ability to connect your laptop to project on the screen. Please see the Library workroom policies before reserving a room. Current availability: GRC B54, GRC B55.
