Make a bookmark, take a bookmark
We’ll be placing bookmark making kits in all our libraries for some fun crafting time in your breaks. Find them in our Library Games Zones or at the libraries front desk. We’re encouraging you to design bookmarks for your peers with motivational messages. Leave your bookmark for another student to take away and add some positivity to their day, and take a bookmark that another student has made that brings you some joy!
