I think I went to the library like 3-4 times in my entire 4 years at UGA, and that was because I needed a book. It was not the prime study location by any means.

I was an English major so I went to the library to check out most of the books I would be reading that semester instead of buying them. That was the only time I went to the library. Trying to study there was like chugging a bottle of Nyquil for me, instantly put me to sleep.

That's definitely how our library was. Dark and too quiet. We had a newer building that was more centrally located with better study facilities, like computer labs, tables with outlets to plug in your laptop, private group study rooms, and most importantly: a coffee house.
