The Beinecke Education Program has instruction spaces available in Sterling Memorial Library and the Beinecke Library building on the Hewitt Quadrangle. All classrooms and seminar rooms have screens available for projection from a laptop. Other room-specific amenities are listed below. Document cameras are available by request. 

We employ a standard configuration that we find best for class visits and tables should not be moved during the class session. Typically, we do not have time to change these configurations because of the volume of classes that we host each week during the academic year. If your session requires a non-traditional arrangement of materials to support your pedagogical goals, we will do our best to work with you to find an acceptable compromise. Contact beinecke.education@yale.edu at least two weeks before the class to discuss your needs.
