Purdue Libraries welcomed a strong turnout of students to the Student Center Library Open House on October 15, introducing attendees to the resources, services and spaces available to support their academic success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Held at the Student Center Library in Indianapolis, the event offered a relaxed, engaging atmosphere for students to explore the library. Attendees enjoyed handcrafted coffee from the Bedrock Coffee cart, received Purdue Libraries T-shirts, participated in games and activities, and had opportunities to win Amazon gift cards. The open house highlighted the many ways Purdue Libraries supports students through research resources, library services, and welcoming spaces for learning and study. It also gave students an opportunity to connect with Libraries staff and learn more about what Libraries has to offer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ann O\u2019Donnell, assistant operations manager of Purdue Libraries in Indianapolis, said, \u201cWe were pleased to see such a great turnout at the open house. It is always wonderful to see members of the Purdue in Indianapolis community and to share Purdue Libraries resources with them.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The strong turnout and enthusiastic participation made the open house a success, helping introduce students to Purdue Libraries and encouraging them to make the Student Center Library part of their campus experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
