Save My Spot is used throughout the Library's study spaces in the Academic Building on Century Avenue. This semester, we are not only using Save My Spot to hold your seat for brief study breaks, but also as a method of contact tracing.

Thank you in advance for your help keeping the students, faculty, and staff at NYU Shanghai safe!
