Gustavus Library

Communications major and Info Desk peer supervisor Phing Xiong highly recommends working at the library. “I’ve enjoyed the conversations and people I’ve met from working at the library.… everyone was different and brought something interesting.” It’s a good thing this tea drinker has had a front-row seat to Tea Tuesdays, as chamomile is his beverage of choice. (Just don’t have him pronounce it—the prankster will try to convince you it’s something else entirely!) Phing’s favorite fictional character is Itachi from Naruto. If you haven’t seen it, Phing recommends it to everyone. Watch it with a bowl of cookies and cream ice cream. According to Phing, the best place on campus is “anywhere you have your people.” Thanks for being one of our people, Phing; we wish all our seniors and the entire Class of 2026 all the best as you finish your time at Gustavus in the coming week!

It's no joke--now that April is here, that means the end of the semester is just around the corner! If you're feeling stressed already, look forward to Friday Finish at the library on April 24th. Relax and refuel with us, and try your "hand" at making a sock puppet or two!

Craft-curious? Join the Gustie Grannies student group on the main (second) floor of the library this Thursday anytime between 11:30 and 1:00 to knit, crochet, or watch in awe as people manipulate yarn into actual objects! Attendees will be eligible to win a prize.

Come to the main floor of the library this Thursday for some special Gustie Storytime sessions! Four professors will be reading aloud to help us celebrate the end of I Love to Read Month. Bring your own blanket and feel like a kid again as you take a break from your regular Thursday activities.
