Library Escape Room

Feedback form is now closed.

One of our librarians went a little mad, and she locked our students in the reference room! Given only an hour one Saturday evening, teams of students had to develop mad research skills to find a way to escape. The goals of our Library Escape Room were to help students hone their skills with the library's databases, discover resources within the reference room, reinforce their citation skills, and remind them that finding information is fun.

Panel participants will learn how the program was developed, what happened during the actual escape room, what worked well, and what needs to change. They will also have an opportunity to read the "script" and experience some of the puzzles that were offered.
