The University of Arkansas Libraries support a diverse campus community, which include caregivers and their families. The Family Study Space is located on the fourth floor of Mullins Library in room 464.

All caregivers and families looking to use this space will need to stop by the Mullins Library Help Desk upon arrival so staff may unlock the room. Families and caregivers will also need to stop back by the Help Desk when finished so the room can be relocked.
