POD Collection

“Over the past two years, I’ve purchased 16 Agati POD study carrels for the MiraCosta College Library. Students love the acoustical engineering, which allows them to focus on their work but still allows them to peripherally view their surroundings. The well-designed table top allows them to charge their devices and gives them space to spread out textbooks and laptops.

A small shelf to the left of the desk secures their backpacks and the seat is comfortable but gives firm support. We occasionally see two students using a POD study carrel, which we affectionately refer to as “two peas in a POD.”

Agati study carrels are perfect for libraries with their unique design and durable materials that work well with our existing furniture, but will still coordinate with newer pieces we hope to incorporate years down the road. Students who are surveyed always mention how much they love the POD study carrels and how it demonstrates that their college cares about providing them with quality study furniture that meets their needs as 21st century learners.”
