We love helping our library users find comfortable and relaxing ways to study through a variety of seating options! We’ll look into your suggestion and consider the pros and cons of recliners, including appropriate locations for this type of seating. Thanks for sharing your idea!

We love helping our community find ways to exercise and have fun! We will look into your wish.

Thank you for your wish. Good mental health is essential for all of us! While this is beyond the scope of services the library can provide, we will refer you to the following contacts:

Thanks so much for submitting your wish — we love hearing your ideas to make Strauss Library even better!

Great news: this wish is already granted! Strauss Library has three water bottle filling stations, one on each floor of the building. You’ll find them on the south end, just outside and between the sets of restrooms. That’s the same end of the building as our main entrance and service desk. These stations were installed as part of a campus-wide initiative a years ago, and while adding more would be a bit cost-prohibitive, we hope you enjoy the ones we do have. Think of it as a mini hydration adventure — a chance to stretch your legs and explore each floor! Thanks again for your thoughtful suggestion.
 

Thank you for submitting your wish. The food pantry is run by Students Affairs, so we will happily forward your suggestion to provide Halal meat. You can also add your suggestions to their wishlist at https://www.cuanschutz.edu/student/support/student-food-pantry.

It would be amazing if the library could help families with convenient day care resources. Sadly, this is beyond the scope of what we are able to provide our CU community. Office of Student Support is available for assistance in Education II North, at StudentAffairs@cuanschutz.edu or at 303-724-2866. 

Thanks for the great suggestion! We agree—having a screen to share content can really boost group study sessions. Right now, eight of our bookable rooms on the first floor have TVs, and there are also event rooms on the second and third floors (marked with EMS signs and daily schedules) that are open for walk-in use when not in use.

While equipping every room with a TV is cost prohibitive, we can explore ways to make more screen-equipped rooms bookable.

Your input helps us stay sharp—thank you for keeping us on our toes!

This wish is granted and the library has put out three hot water kettles, one on each floor. Thank you.

We can look for funding for another nap pod and consider a location.

We can consider and look into most of these. It is unlikely that we will provide hammocks. Thank you.
