What's Real-time Capacity?
Using really fantastic technology, we're able to show you how likely it is you'll find a seat at this space right now.
What does the data show?
The following breakdown shows the possible outcomes you'll see.
| Many | The likelihood of finding an open seat right now is high. |
| Some | The likelihood of finding an open seat right now is good. |
| Few | The likelihood of finding an open seat right now is low. |
How is it calculated?
We look at people entering and exiting the space, matching that against the total available seating. Sprinkle in a little magic and, voilà, you have real-time seating capacity.
Contact us to get this set up in your space and download the Density iPhone app to get real-time information in your pocket.
Tips
1. Cell phone photos are OK.
2. While we find that most folks don't mind being in the background of photos, don't sweat it if someone objects. Thank ‘em and find another shot or go back to working/studying.
“Excuse me. Do you mind if I take a picture of this area with you working in the background? It’s for a project I’m a part of that connects people like us with great spaces to work, like this one.”
We’re not using community sourced photography for commercial purposes, so you needn’t worry about documented permission or release forms.
3. Submitted photos will be attributed to you unless you state otherwise.

Community notes
pjf
As of today the WiFi is letting me use ssh and imaps, so it looks like the “web only” restrictions have been removed. Speeds are now 2Mbps symmetric per device, not the delightful 16Mbps listed at my time of check-in. (Ran a speed test, but no idea why it hasn’t updated.)

There’s a computer lab up on the first floor that’s near the kitchen, and almost always has lots of free desk space and power points. I’ve never had any complaints about moving a keyboard aside to squeeze in my laptop.

There are power points available in the outdoor seating area if you look closely. On a nice day you can grab a coffee from the library cafe and work outside.
