The reading room is a small room on the Spencer Mansion's second floor.

Description[]

The reading room is a small study on the mansion's east wing. While it has bookshelves like the larger library on the west wing, the reading room also serves as a place of relaxation for the Arklay Laboratory's employees, who could listen to music; read a newspaper or play chess in their off-hours.

The reading room saw noticeable updates for the 2002 remake to be more relaxed, with the original 1996 game instead only featuring furniture and books.
