One way you can reserve the group study rooms on the first floor is by using the touch panels located outside of the room you want to use. 

If the panel is red, it means the room is reserved for the time period or minutes currently displayed. 

If the touch panel is green, it means the room is available to be reserved. Click on "Reserve Room" to book your time. 

If the light on the panel is red and the room is not in use 10 minutes into the reserved period, it may be used by another group for the duration of the period. You may press end now and a Manage option will appear: Do you want to end this meeting? Press yes to end and then you may click on book room to reserve it.
