Join us at the JDH Library for our Summer Fun series! Campus may be quiet, but we're not!
Hobby Swaps
Looking to share something you love or learn something new? Join us for our expanded Hobby Swap series in the library! On the third Thursday of each month at 8:30am, we’re inviting folks from across departments to take a turn sharing a hobby, skill, or topic they’re passionate about in a relaxed, welcoming space by the first floor fireplace. Can't make it in person? Join us online.
No need to be an expert—just bring your enthusiasm! If you’re interested in leading a session, fill out our form and we’ll coordinate scheduling based on availability and interest.
May 21st, June 19th, July 17th, and August 21st @ 8:30am

Walking Book Club
Meet us outside the library on Wednesdays at 12:30 this summer from June 3 through August 12 for a relaxed Walking Book Club! We’ll take a 30 minute walk around campus and the surrounding neighborhood while chatting about whatever we’re currently reading, with no assigned books and no pressure. It’s a great way to get some fresh air, get your steps in, and connect with others on campus during the quieter summer months. All are welcome, just show up and walk with us! This is a qualifying activity for a sticker incentive from the Buzz Around Campus initiative.
Summer Movie Series
Join us at the library this summer for a laid back Movie Series open to students, staff, and community members! We will be screening one film each month on June 16, July 21, and August 18 at 2:30pm. Bring a friend, bring a snack, or even bring your laptop and get some work done while the movie plays. It is a relaxed way to spend an afternoon, cool off, and enjoy a film in good company. All are welcome, just stop by and settle in!
Craft and Chat
Bring your current craft project and join us for a cozy, low-key gathering by the fireplace. Whether you knit, crochet, draw, journal, or just want to relax and chat, this is a welcoming space to create, connect, and unwind with fellow campus community members. All skill levels (and friendly conversation) encouraged! 4th Tuesday of every month at 11am.
