Answers

If you mostly picked 1), then perhaps with adrenaline and exertion, climbing up and down the steps while munching on snacks, coffee, and re-heated food, the Cornell Science Library is your new perfect study spot! 

If you mostly picked 2), then perhaps where treasures and troves exist, dwindling down to the lower level of the cobbled stone walled palace, the McCabe Library is your new perfect study spot! 

If you mostly picked 3), then perhaps nestled among the exquisite Crum Woods and serenaded by the first plucks of stringed quartets, the Underhill Music and Dance Library is your new perfect study spot!
