Quick and easy way to tell which McHenry Library room numbers are group study rooms

There is a common element to all of the group study rooms in McHenry Library: they all have a "3" as the second number. The first number tells you what floor the room is on, and the "3" tells you it's a group room.

**2nd floor exception: 2353 and 2359 are the Library Classrooms, that cannot be booked as group study rooms by students. No exceptions. But at least you can tell immediately with the above metric whether it is an office or not.

So when someone is asking for a room number and they don't know if it's an office, a classroom, or a group study room, listen for the "3" as the second number.

03xx = Media Center (0=ground floor, 3=group study/viewing rooms)

13xx = FITC/Learning Technologies (1=1st floor, 3=instructional studios, not bookable through our system)

23xx = 2nd floor group rooms, but 2353 and 2359 are library classrooms. 2316 and 2351 are the only 2nd floor group study rooms students can book

33xx = 3rd floor group study rooms

43xx = 4th floor group study rooms
