This QR Scavenger Hunt is an interactive way to introduce

students to the sometimes overwhelming library environment. Students are assembled into teams and given eleven questions

about the Libraries' spaces, services, and collections. In this fast-paced game, they have just 20 minutes to answer as many

questions as they can. The pairs have to work together to scan

the qr code clues, search/think to find the answer, and record on the scavenger hunt answer sheet.

Each team uses an ipad from the building cart to submit

their scavenger hunt answers on the sheet. At the end of the scavenger hunt, the teams reconvene to briefly discuss their

findings. By the end of the activity, students have not just

learned about the library; they have interacted with it by exploring its spaces and the website, they have taken photos

with a librarian, and have found a book in the stacks. The Mobile Scavenger Hunt presents our library as a place of

discovery in a fun, low-stakes, collaborative way and reduces library anxiety by using situated, problem-based learning.
