The library also provides dedicated Postgraduates and Higher Degree Research study seats with desktop power for laptops, Macquarie network access, vending machine and free lockers for Macquarie University Students.

- A green roof with grass and gardens
- Natural light wells for lower floors
- External shade fins
- Zoned lighting
