Escape the Library!: Innovation in using Physical and Digital Spaces for Outreach and In-Reach

 

Session Description:
Escape rooms have become popular nationwide. These adventures require groups to work together to solve problems in an hour or less. Recently, libraries have also decided to leverage escape rooms and create routes that showcase library resources and services. This tactic allows library orientations to appeal to undergraduate students, and also present the library in a new way. This panel will feature two librarians and a circulation supervisor who have used escape rooms in different institutions for different purposes. Audience members will walk away with new ideas about escape rooms and how they could implement them at their institution.
