The event gives KU students a chance to explore the library and discover the resources and services that we offer while having some fun and possibly winning prizes. Students will take a self-guided tour around the building to different stops where they will interact with staff to learn about the library. So far, the top prizes include two $50 cash prizes and four $25 gift cards to the book store. There will be a place for the students to list a course on their ticket, and any professors who would like to use this library tour for credit or extra credit in their classes can contact professor Krista Prock, prock@kutztown.edu or professor Karen Wanamaker, kwanamak@kutztown.edu for more information.
