Looking for a great place to study? The University of Hawai‘ i at Mānoa’s campus has various locations students are able to utilize that are designated as studying areas.
The Hamilton Library is the largest library on campus and the largest research library in the state of Hawai‘i. Students will find this to be an important resource for their studies. Of course, plenty of study space is available!
Sinclair Library may not have as deep a catalog as the Hamilton Library, but it provides resources for students, with a study room downstairs and other levels where students are able to relax quietly and do their work. The university is working to upgrade the Library into a “student success center.” Students have access 24 hours/day Mon. - Thurs. to the computer lab and reading room.

The Japanese Garden is located behind the East-West Center and contains both native and foreign plants growing side by side. There aren’t any tables or chairs but it’s the perfect place to set out a blanket and enjoy the shade of the tree or consume the sunlight while you read a book. You can hear and see the Mānoa stream.
Conveniently located within Campus Center is the Food Court near Jamba Juice and the University of Hawai‘ i Federal Credit Union. There are many tables and chairs spread out and available in this designated study area.
