Spring 2021

If you miss our Stress Free Library events, we're switching gears and creating a virtual island getaway for finals week. In lieu of in-person therapy dog visits and jigsaw puzzles in the Sherman Fairchild Library, the Library will design a Stress Free Library island on the social simulation video game, Animal Crossing: New Horizons. Join Beavs and friends at their livestream.

Animal Crossings: New Horizon's YouTube Livestream

• This past spring, a team led by Paula Gaetos designed a Stress Free Library island on the social simulation video game, Animal Crossing: New Horizons. The build was shared via livestream on YouTube. This fall, we will journey back to the island on December 3 and 9 and you can join us at our AC Dream Address: DA-1146-4103-2699 or rewatch the visit on the Caltech Library YouTube channel.
