Many students regularly find themselves needing a study space. Some prefer the comfort of their own homes, or the convenience and resources of Hamersly Library. For some, however, sometimes physical space away from campus helps clear the head. For these needs, I\u2019ve compiled a list of a variety of off-campus study spots.<\/span><\/p>\n

DIY Tea and Beyond is closest to campus, located right behind Urban Deli, but it is set up to be the perfect student hangout. The cafe offers both caffeinated and un-caffeinated beverages, as well as wifi and a printer. 176 Main St, Monmouth is where students can find this location.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Java Crew is a cafe located on Monmouth Avenue, right on the edge of downtown Monmouth. This cafe is perfect for morning or afternoon study sessions for those that love an atmosphere that\u2019s not too busy and not too quiet, has different seating options and has access to coffee. This cafe\u2019s address is 139 Monmouth Ave, Monmouth.<\/span><\/p>\n

A similar cafe can be found just down Main Street. Rick\u2019s Place also has a calm atmosphere great for mornings or afternoons, and is a little more open spacewise. Find Rick\u2019s Place at 123 Main St, Monmouth. <\/span><\/p>\n

For those that don\u2019t require refreshments and prefer quieter environments, Monmouth and Independence have public libraries. These would offer students similar resources to Hamersly Library, but will likely not be as full of other students. In Monmouth, the public library can be found at 168 S Ecols St, and in Independence at 175 Monmouth St.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, for those that like their long-term study spots to be open later and offer food, there\u2019s Koyote\u2019s Tacos right next to campus. Students can study at this location using the free wifi until two in the morning, and enjoy affordable food while doing so. Koyote\u2019s is located at 159 Monmouth Ave N.<\/span><\/p>\n

Another option including food and later hours is Brew Coffee and Tap House, located in downtown Independence. Students can expect a busier atmosphere, but have the options of coffee and food available to them. Students can find Brew Coffee at 211 S Main St, Independence.<\/span><\/p>\n
