Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony: Second Floor Study Pods

Come explore our new work and study pods at our official Ribbon-Cutting Ceremony!

These modular, soundproofed work spaces will include two four-person meeting rooms and two “phone booth-style” individual pods/ The modular rooms, manufactured by ROOM, will provide spaces for all Library members to conduct video conferencing calls, online job interviews, in-person meetings, and more.

In the wake of COVID and the rise of Zoom meetings, Darien Library has seen a surge in demand for their meeting rooms. Nearly every day, available meeting room bookings fill before noon, and they are forced to turn away more than 100 people each week. The addition of the four study pods will more than triple the Library’s weekly study space availability, allowing them to accommodate more than 100 new patrons looking for remote work spaces.

How to Reserve a Study Pod

Darien Library cardholders wishing to reserve a space will be able to do so online, by contacting the Reference Desk at 203-669-5236, or by emailing reference@darienlibrary.org.

This project was made possible by a generous capital grant from the Darien Foundation.
