Not sure if this is still an option, but I used to find an empty carrel in Pusey library. It's underground, so no windows, no distractions. No one goes there.

Law School library. That place is super quiet, especially in the reading room.

I always sit in the law school library because it is divided into smaller sections by the bookcases. Also, free coffee!

Mather Library

It shouldn't be hard to find an empty class room in the Science Center at night.

Widener Library stacks.

SEAS if it counts as undergrad campus

I always liked studying in Quincy dhall. Sounds like you’re in the quad so the SOCH is pretty nice too. Upper floors have some office-like desks that are usually unoccupied. Top floor I believe has a nice lounge area.

Now that I already graduated, I will stop gatekeeping: Healey library 4th floor. Theres art work around, but a quiet space at end with 2 desks and a table, and a private bathroom not many people use. I loved taking dab pen hits there.

there’s a secret study area behind snowden auditorium:D

The Healey library 6th floor

Visits 6th floor The Healey library would recommend that

I used to climb up into the window sill at the top floor of the campus center corner stairwell, you get interrupted in between classes and there’s no outlet but there’s a nice view of the harbor

same, i’m iffy towards libraries because they make me leave the desk and go to a different space to drink from my water bottle

Honestly...my car. I find a nice shaded area, park my car, sit in the back seat, prop my feet up on the middle console, connect my laptop to my phone's hotspot, and I'm good to go for hours. If it starts getting a little warm, I move my car or I turn on a small USB fan I carry with me. I bring a small cooler for snacks and a drink or two. If I need to use the bathroom, I lock everything in my trunk, use a free bathroom, and come back. I've saved so much money and time having done this for about a year. I can go to the beach, park, parking structure, shopping center. And I don't have to interact with anyone.

Try a co-working place. I got a desk and then an office at BoxJelly for a year. I was working remotely at that time and couldn't concentrate at home. Anyway, BoxJelly has different options and you can even just go and ask for a tour to get a sense of the vibe.

Hotel spaces are great, pop your laptop open and throw some headphones on, bam, tourist.

I tried to do that at The Curb in Kaimuki, gets pretty busy there and idk I had hard time cuz it’s so loud and I can hear everybody’s conversation except the one going on inside my head.

First floor and Core in the Main Library can be busy but floors 3-5 (book stacks in all three towers) have plenty of unoccupied spots that see little or no use. You do not need a Wildcard to use the Library since it is open to the public. Just register as a guest with a photo ID at the entrance.

You have no business in any of the classrooms on campus, FWIW. This helps keep things with guests on the up and up.

Kellogg is a good place to do work and the top floors of main are usually pretty quiet

the entire tech building and its connections to Silverman, pancoe, and hogan are all connected. it would take at least a month of studying to study through the whole system. I made a teir list of all the best study rooms and like 20 of the are in the tech building alone

The Zuhl Library on campus at NMSU is open to the community, you can study there

I have used and enjoyed Milagro Coffee (in the back), but you have to be strategic to get a table; Grounded Cafe (outside of you don't need a plug, or up the stairs inside of you do); The Bean at Mesilla (this one was fun, no issues with getting tables, it was never crowded); and the Cruces library has some interesting spaces for study, not necessarily a quiet room (although maybe those exist, too).

I have also used The Bean on Mesquite, but didn't enjoy it as a study location. Too small,

I have never tried The Bean at Josephine. There's also a co-working center called Collective Co.(pay by the day or monthly) for a professional space to work, which includes coffee/a kitchen, etc. it's owned by the same people who own Grounded, and it's like a street over. You can tour during the business day, and it might be worth a month or two if you are doing something with a time limit (e g. Master's dissertation, certification exam, etc).

The public library has study rooms too 😇

If you can get a table, the room in the back of Milagro is nice, and you can enjoy your coffee there. Zuhl Library has some great spots, and Branson Library is eerily quiet, buts it's hours are super limited. Lots of people go to Grounded, but it always seems busy. Picacho Roasters is very chill, if all else, go for the coffee and espresso! Hope this helps.

I like Branson library

I always recommend the downtown library or in Reynolds if it's not out of your way. Both give you nice views of town depending on where you're studying and Reynolds you can look out at the river and rail trail if you study in the atrium.

honestly evansdale library has always been my favorite since its 24 hours on the weekdays! super quiet!

I used to love studying in the evenings at the cafeteria in Ruby. Pulled quite a few all nighters there.

2nd and 3rd floor of Brooke have nice tables and comfy chairs. Huge floor to ceiling windows with views of Woodburn too. 3rd floor is usually quieter than 2nd, but both are ultra quiet after 4pm ish

Downtown library

Check what colleges are keeping public areas open to the public during the pandemic, and how late they’re open. It looks like at least one Harvard library is open 24/7, but I’m not sure if she’d qualify as a “visiting researcher”. https://library.harvard.edu/libraries

The school I work at has 24 hour study spaces for students. You may want to check with the school your daughter goes to.

The Cambridge public library on Broadway is open till 9pm weeknights. I don’t know how late you consider late.

Cafe Andala in Central - super cozy, indoor and outdoor seating, free Wi-Fi, and hot tea (plus other food/drinks).

The Harvard Smith Center has some pleasant public seating with tables inside - on an indoor terrace above Pavement Cafe. I think she'd be able to connect to the Harvard University public wifi. Open to the public til 10 PM weekdays and weekends

Lots of quiet space at the HLS student center

The basement of the northwest science building is usually pretty quiet, I don’t know about in finals week tho. (Also an extension school student)

I highly recommend CGIS

You can usually pull up your registration email and show it to a security guard. My friend does this for the one in the science center and gets in fine

Looks like I'm a bit late to help but good luck with your final tomorrow!
