Margaret Jacks is a card-access only building. For the security of our academic units, we do not unlock the doors of the building. Stanford staff and students should have their ID cards to swipe in. For events open to the public, please arrange to have a staff person at the door or inquire about temporary access for your event.

Room Fee: We charge a fee of $100 per day for reservations. This fee helps us to maintain and update the furniture, equipment, carpet, and overall cleanliness of the room and kitchen.

If you are catering, we request an Event Trio of trash/recycle/compost bins be delivered to the room for your event as our standard-issue building bins cannot accommodate a large amount of trash.

Please read these requirements carefully before reserving the Terrace Room:

1. Contact englishdept [at] stanford.edu (englishdept[at]stanford[dot]edu) with your initial event inquiry. Please include the event date and time (add set-up and clean-up time). We will confirm whether or not the room is available for your desired date and time, and the event will be tentatively penciled onto the calendar.

2. Once we have confirmed your requested date and time is available, a formal reservation form and confirmation will be emailed to you as an Outlook calendar invitation. The Outlook calendar invitation will include the details for creating an expense journal entry for our department.

3. Your reservation remains tentative until we receive the completed reservation form.

4. Coordinate pick-up and drop-off of the Terrace Room key from the English Department office in room 460-201. Event coordinators are responsible for obtaining and returning the key during department office hours.

Once the event ends, it is the user's responsibility to return the room to the set-up shown below:

After returning the room to this state, please ensure that:

• All trash has been disposed of in the bins. Do not leave bins inside the Terrace Room - place them outside in the hallway.
• All food is disposed of and no supplies remain in the kitchen.
• All equipment in the room has been turned off and returned to its initial location.
• All lights are turned off.
• Terrace Room doors are locked.
• Key is returned to room 460-201.
