May Updates
Survive the final stretch with study breaks, free snacks, and more time to lock in at your Library.
Wellness Weeks at your Library: May 11 – 21
Refresh and refuel with study breaks, snacks and resources
This spring, we’re expanding Wellness Weeks throughout the Library. All the end-of-semester support we usually pack into the Events Room (LIB 121) will instead be spread around the building starting the week before finals.
Here's what we have planned:
-
Study break stations on multiple floors — look for the signs!
-
Free snacks for all SFSU students near the Book Checkout & Pickup Desk
-
Crafternoon-style crafting pop-ups
-
Info hubs with research tips and campus support resources on the first and second floors
-
Visiting therapy dogs on May 12 — details below!
Gallery Opening: On Strike! Shut it Down!
Join us for the opening reception of a new student-curated and student-designed exhibition on the historic student-led strike of the 1960s!
