A group study area is available in the AUL Special Collections Room on a first come, first served basis. Ask at the Information Desk for access to this room. 334-953-2888.
It is located on the first floor of the library to the right of the stacks. For group sessions, reservations are a nice gesture in order to make certain someone isn't in there when you need to get your work done.
If it is empty you can help yourself. Be sure to share if someone comes along wanting to use it too.
The room hold old books on many topics that can be looked through, but not checked out. We ask that you handle them with care as they are very old and some are brittle.

Need A Book and We Don't Have It? Come to ILL
Our Interlibrary Loan Department can get you any book you need from around the world. Do you have a book you want and can't find it here? Let our ILL staff find it for you.
All you need to do is fill out the ILL form. You can fill out the form online and submit it or you can come into the library and fill one out in person.
If you are not located at Maxwell AFB and need a book we have in our collection, you need to be DoD personnel to borrow the material. You first need to go to your local military (base) library, make sure it is not there, and have them contact the ILL department to request the book. WE DO NOT LEND BOOKS TO INDIVIDUALS.
