@bioethics: I also don’t understand why that is the case. It is an amazing space and students should have more access to it.

The bioethics library is open until 9 during study days and finals – not great, but still better than 5

my suggestions:
1. the illy cafe on new hampshire & m st. it’s a 20 minute walk from campus, or a quick ride on the circ. best espresso and cappuccino in DC (it’s illy, duh!), with prices even lower than the corp’s. adjacent to the coffeeshop is the rennaissance m’s hotel lobby, which has tons of outlets. great study spot!
2. library of congress reading room. if you are writing a paper, the librarians there will help you find sources. plus the architecture is inspiring

It always baffled me that the bioethics research library closes at 5 daily and is closed on Sundays. It is easily the coolest place to study on campus. The deck upstairs with the low ceiling is the best place to hole up and write a paper. It furthers the theory that the administration doesn’t care about students utilizing Georgetown’s most iconic building. (See Healy Pub proposal)

Dupont Circle has something like 6 starbucks within a 4 block radius of the actual circle…. so options galore.
Also DC recently renovated more than a few of their public libraries.

Other great spots (though I hesitate to share them) are the bioethics library in Healy and the lobby of the Davis Performing Arts Center. Also, the on-campus Starbucks has comfy furniture, and the Dupont Starbucks is a short GUTS bus ride away and ideal for people watching.
