    If you don't have a Harvard student or faculty ID they won't let you in unless you utter the magic password, "I'm here to see the Woodberry Poetry Room". That's open to the public, you see.

    They have a whole bunch of group study room in the basement, we most definitely took advantage of those... Good times!

    Sit on the chairs on the edge of the cafe. Enjoy the view, put your feet up. And learn.

    Too crowded all the time. People take this place for granted - I see some people talking loudly between stacks. Not respectful.
