At the end of each semester, Paul Robeson Library offers programming to help students lessen feelings of stress associated with finals. Normally we would fill up a book truck with snacks, set up a puzzle table, break out the button maker, order some pizzas, and schedule multiple visits from local pet therapy providers. So when the COVID pandemic eliminated in-person stress relief sessions, we pivoted to virtual formats and were able to expand our usual offerings by adding tours of Louvre, free yoga courses, and even a basket of kittens!
Crowdsourced from the staff and faculty of Robeson Library, our #StressBusters LibGuide offers plenty of free online diversions for anyone seeking self-care and relaxation. From aforementioned museum tours and animal cams to even a set of Robeson Library puzzles, stress relief is just a click away.
