Spring 2025 I

Printing in the Library

As a reminder, printing quotas for the spring semester have been renewed to 100 pages. As there are no options to obtain or “buy” more pages, please print only what is necessary when using library printers. If you deplete your printing quota, talk to your company leadership about additional printing options.

New software available

You asked for it, and we got it. Mathematica, Matlab, and Stata are now available on library computers for midshipmen, faculty and staff. Mathematica is a programming language software that allows users to visualize a broad range of items from mathematical equations to linguistic data and other visualization projects. Matlab is a programming language used for numerical computation. Stata is statistical software that aids in managing data, logging research, and producing statistical tables. If you have any questions about these new additions, ask a research instruction librarian. 

Reserve a study room in the library

Two individual study rooms and four group study rooms on the library’s third floor are reservable in Spring 2025. One hour reservations can be made up to seven days in advance using the links on this page. Additional details and room reservation policies can be found here. If you have feedback, please share it on this form.

Library Events & Research Talks

Mark your calendar for this semester’s slate of Faculty Research Talks and USNA Band performances at Nimitz.  The talks are aimed at non-experts and are a great way to get insight about what your faculty do outside of the classroom - plus you’ll have the opportunity to ask questions.  Each band performance features a different ensemble for a variety of sounds. Join us for any or all of this semester’s talks and performances!
