"Although I'm no longer a student at UNLV, I still come back to \"Club Lied\" on occasion - particularly when I need to think or immerse myself in a lengthy project. Living out in Summerlin means that the Lied Library is a bit of a drive for me, but it's by far the best library in town, so it's well worth the commute. \n\nThe building is very clean, spacious, and well-designed. There are designated quiet floors, as well as floors meant for group study and conversation. Each floor also has a handful of private study rooms, which are great for group projects, if you can find an open one (they fill up fast!). But even if all the study rooms are full, it's not too hard to find a secluded corner to work with your friends in peace. \n\nUNLV is a commuter campus, which makes avoiding the crowds very easy, once you understand the campus schedule. The library is often bustling and busy during school hours, especially on the lower floors. But if you come by later at night or on the weekends, it's usually nearly empty (which I personally prefer). Of course, finals week is a different story - you know it's always going to be packed, no matter what. \n\nThe only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is because it's not open 24 hours. As a student, I was always jealous of my friends at other schools who had that perk."^^ . "1"^^ .
