Libraries and coworking spaces are increasingly popular places for students to study for their midterms or their baccalaureate (in the case of high school students), as they offer a setting conducive to concentration and a calm and comfortable work environment.
First of all, there are many libraries in Paris, which are often considered the most suitable places to study for exams because of their calmness. Special mention for the university libraries, always well equipped with quiet reading rooms, individual work spaces, many academic books to consult and plugs to charge your PC! Not to mention the online resources, available for consultation on site, to complete and expand your studies.
