Automated Lock System
CMPL has an integrated reservation and lock system for meeting and study rooms. Study room reservations do not need to be approved. You will simply make your reservation and receive a code to unlock the door to the room at the time of your reservation. This code may used for the duration of your reservation if you need to leave the room and come back. Watch the video below to see how to reserve a study room and get your door code.
