Attend Libraries’ first-ever Study Crawl on May 1

Buckle up, bookworms: Soon you can end your semester with an adventure!

UW-Madison Libraries are hosting the first-ever Study Crawl on Friday, May 1, to help you round out the academic year with discovery, fun, and, of course, snacks.

This daylong series of study break activities takes place across multiple library locations, so it’s the perfect chance to visit your favorite study spot — and explore new ones. To participate, grab a library Study Crawl passport at any of the following libraries, and make sure to get a sticker from library staff when you attend a Study Crawl event.

Your completed passport earns you a collectible button, plus an entry into a prize drawing for a Study Crawl plushie, notebook, and commemorative sticker. Five lucky winners will be selected!
